The Molecule of More: How a Single Chemical in Your Brain Drives Love, Sex, and Creativity with Daniel Z. Lieberman
Why are we obsessed with the thing as we want – only to be bored when we get them?Â
Why is addiction perfectly logical to an addict?Â
Why does love change so quickly from passion to indifference?Â
Why are some people, die-hard liberals and others hardcore conservatives?Â
Why are we always hopeful for solutions even in the darkest timesâand so good at figuring them out?Â
The answer is found in a single chemical in your brain:Â dopamine.
Dopamine ensured the survival of early man.
Thousands of years later, it is the source of our most basic behavioUrs and cultural ideasâand progress itself.Â
Dopamine is the chemical of desire that always asks for moreâmore stuff, more stimulation, more surprises.
In pursuit of these things, it is undeterred by emotion, fear, or morality.
We welcome the author of âThe Molecule of More:Â How a Single Chemical in Your Brain Drives Love, Sex, and Creativityâand will Determine the Fate of the Human Race.â Daniel Z. Lieberman
