ISBN: 9780142437445 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why do we laugh? The answer, argued Freud in this groundbreaking study of humor, is that jokes, like dreams, satisfy our unconscious desires.

Descartes' Error: Emotion, Reason, and the Human Brain
ISBN: 9780143036227 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since Descartes famously proclaimed, "I think, therefore I am," science has often overlooked emotions as the source of a person's true being.

This attitude began to change with the publication of Descartes' Error in 1995. Antonio Damasio--"one of the world's leading neurologists" (The New York Times)--challenged traditional ideas about the connection between emotions and rationality. In this wondrously engaging book, Damasio takes the reader on a...

We all want more money, but as societies become richer, they do not become happier. This is not speculation: It's the story told by countless pieces of scientific research.
