The Compass of Pleasure pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2025
A leading brain scientist's look at the neurobiology of pleasure-and how pleasures can become addictions.
Whether eating, taking drugs, engaging in sex, or doing good deeds, the pursuit of pleasure is a central drive of the human animal. In The Compass of Pleasure Johns Hopkins neuroscientist David J. Linden explains how pleasure affects us at the most fundamental level: in our brain.
As he did in his award-winning book, The Accidental Mind, Linden combines cutting-edge science with entertaining anecdotes to illuminate the source of the behaviors that can lead us to ecstasy but that can easily become compulsive. Why are drugs like nicotine and heroin addictive while LSD is not? Why has the search for safe appetite suppressants been such a disappointment? The Compass of Pleasure concludes with a provocative consideration of pleasure in the future, when it may be possible to activate our pleasure circuits at will and in entirely novel patterns.
David J. Linden is a professor of neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University of Medicine. The author of more than ninety scientific papers, he also serves as the editor in chief of The Journal of Neurphysiology. His work has received awards from the Sloan, McKnight and Klingenstein Foundations as well as those of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and the Society for Neuroscience.

評分The problem with neuroscience is that it seems to deny the existence of free will. When all behaviors are traced back to neurons and cells, it becomes hard to believe in concepts such as will and self determination.
通过阅读能够了解,很多能让我们感到快乐的事情是如何在大脑中经过复杂的化学作用最终输出快乐的。而且每一个愉悦回路都是不断自我更新的系统,这个原理建立在大脑本就是用进废退的器官的基础之上,所以,让我们快乐的事情越来越少,因为以往能让我们快乐的事情在周而复始之后...
評分坦白讲,我没有看懂这本所谓的科普书在讲些什么,一如读不懂休谟的《人性论》或康德的《纯粹理性批判》,所以读后最大的感受,反而在书外,那就是丫的湛庐文化太会营销了,封面上宣传的“我们为什么会感到快乐?为什么戒酒、戒毒、戒赌这么难?为什么有些人抵抗不了性的诱惑?...
評分 評分兴奋剂、镇静剂、致幻剂、阿片剂、吸烟、暴饮暴食、赌博、电子游戏甚至运动都会让人成瘾,是因为这些都会激活大脑的愉悦回路,分泌多巴胺。人之所以愿意沉溺只不过是为了一而再再而三地得到愉悦的感觉。通常我们会认为一个人对某一项成瘾是因为个人意志薄弱、心理不健康。但事...
