具体描述
A leading brain scientist's look at the neurobiology of pleasure-and how pleasures can become addictions.
Whether eating, taking drugs, engaging in sex, or doing good deeds, the pursuit of pleasure is a central drive of the human animal. In The Compass of Pleasure Johns Hopkins neuroscientist David J. Linden explains how pleasure affects us at the most fundamental level: in our brain.
As he did in his award-winning book, The Accidental Mind, Linden combines cutting-edge science with entertaining anecdotes to illuminate the source of the behaviors that can lead us to ecstasy but that can easily become compulsive. Why are drugs like nicotine and heroin addictive while LSD is not? Why has the search for safe appetite suppressants been such a disappointment? The Compass of Pleasure concludes with a provocative consideration of pleasure in the future, when it may be possible to activate our pleasure circuits at will and in entirely novel patterns.

读后感
兴奋剂、镇静剂、致幻剂、阿片剂、吸烟、暴饮暴食、赌博、电子游戏甚至运动都会让人成瘾，是因为这些都会激活大脑的愉悦回路，分泌多巴胺。人之所以愿意沉溺只不过是为了一而再再而三地得到愉悦的感觉。通常我们会认为一个人对某一项成瘾是因为个人意志薄弱、心理不健康。但事...
评分通过阅读能够了解，很多能让我们感到快乐的事情是如何在大脑中经过复杂的化学作用最终输出快乐的。而且每一个愉悦回路都是不断自我更新的系统，这个原理建立在大脑本就是用进废退的器官的基础之上，所以，让我们快乐的事情越来越少，因为以往能让我们快乐的事情在周而复始之后...
评分这本书的原名非常长，叫做：the compass of pleasure: how our brain make fatty foods, orgasm, exercise, marijuana, generosity, vodka, learning, and gambling feel so good. 我更喜欢原意：快乐的指南针。题目中的几个关键词概括了全书的内涵，即大脑、食物、赌博以及某...
评分愉悦回路最初来自于生理本能的发展，随着智慧和社会的出现，各种社会性活动通过复杂的交流和故事建立了关联和预期，因此也开始能激活愉悦回路。 从这个意义上看，人类具备赋予某种事件意义并激发愉悦回路的能力，只要打通与本能满足的关联。甚至超过本能。 人是追求愉悦的动物...
评分by/渔歌 中世纪的西方世界强调禁欲，人们生活在宗教的压制之下。相比之下，处在东方的中国，自南宋以后，也逐渐对欲望尤其是性欲战战兢兢。到了清代，封建社会的伦理纲常更是进一步的强调修身节制。 与之相反，古希腊的众神从未停止过对欲望的追求和满足。以至于赫拉难免防着...
用户评价
basically a book-length literature review. still fun to read
评分The problem with neuroscience is that it seems to deny the existence of free will. When all behaviors are traced back to neurons and cells, it becomes hard to believe in concepts such as will and self determination.

评分3.5星吧。太多的内容都还是active research并没有定论的，整本书可能听npr介绍就足够了。一句总结：乐趣和上瘾都有大脑里面的根源，derive moderate pleasure from various sources.
