Description

Dopamine explains why we crave things, why addiction seems logical, and love fades. It drives political divides and fuels hope, ensuring early human survival and shaping our behaviors and progress. Dopamine, the chemical of desire, relentlessly seeks more: stuff, stimulation, surprises, ignoring emotion and morality. Getting something new, not possessing it, matters. Understanding this anticipation versus possession reveals revolutionary insights into love, business, addiction, politics, and religion, allowing behavior prediction.
