Description
Why do we crave ownership, even when it's no longer necessary? Beautifully written and thought-provoking, this book explores how our need for possession drives our behaviour from childhood to old age.
A unique blend of psychology, neuroscience, and cultural insight, Possessed reveals the surprising ways in which ownership shapes our lives. From the global pandemic to personal relationships, Bruce Hood shows us why we can't seem to break free from our love affair with stuff.
