About this ebook

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.
