Synopsis: |
Presents the study of the interrelation between three explanatory approaches to behaviour: neurobiology, culture and choice. The book is organized around parallel analyses of emotion and addiction in order to bring out similarities as well as differences. Jon Elster's study sheds light on the generation of human behaviour, revealing how cognition, choice and rationality are undermined by the physical processes that underlie strong emotions and cravings. |
