Krátky popis
How ownership came to control us - and what we can do about itOur
love affair with our possessions seems to be all-consuming, even as
our planet reaches breaking point. Despite the constant warnings
about our future, we are reluctant to change our ways when it comes
to accumulating more and more things. Why is this?The answer is our
need for ownership.Ownership is a uniquely human pre-occupation
that has its origins deeply rooted in our biology. It can be seen
in everything from children fighting over toys to the rise of
political extremism. Award-winning psychologist Bruce Hood draws on
research from his own lab and others around the world to explain
why psychological ownership is an emotional state of mind that
governs our behaviour from the cradle to the grave, even when it is
often irrational and destructive.What motivates us to buy more than
we need? How does our urge to acquire control our behaviour, even
the way we vote? And what can we do about it?Timely, engaging and
persuasive, Possessed is the first book to explore how ownership
has us enthralled in relentless pursuit of a false happiness, with
damaging consequences for society and the planet - and how we can
stop buying into it.
