Description
Why do brilliant people make catastrophic decisions? Why do loving relationships become battlegrounds? Why does success so rarely produce the satisfaction it promised? Why do human beings, across every culture and every century, reach toward something they cannot quite name and never fully find?The answers are not moral failures. They are not character defects. They are human nature — and for the first time in history, science can explain them.The Psychology of Human Nature: Why We Love, Fear, Envy, and Seek Meaning by Daniel Hartmann is the definitive, rigorously researched, and compellingly written guide to understanding the forces that drive human behaviour from the inside out. Drawing on evolutionary psychology, neuroscience, social psychology, anthropology, and decades of landmark clinical research, this book delivers what no self-help book, philosophy course, or therapy session has ever provided in a single volume: a complete, honest, scientifically grounded account of what human beings actually are — and what that understanding makes possible.
