About This Book

An exploration of how dopamine functions as the brain's 'molecule of more,' driving ambition, desire, and the constant search for novelty. The book contrasts this future-oriented chemical with 'here and now' neurotransmitters like serotonin and oxytocin to explain human behavior in love, politics, and addiction.
