The Compass of Pleasure by neuroscientist David J. Linden explores how the human brain experiences pleasure and how these feelings can sometimes lead to addiction. Blending scientific insights with engaging anecdotes, the book examines various sources of pleasure—such as food, drugs, sex, and altruism—and their neurological underpinnings. It also considers the implications of future possibilities for controlling pleasure responses in new ways.
