The Hacking of the American Mind: The Science Behind the Corporate Takeover of Our Bodies and Brains

The Happiness Trap is a groundbreaking book that exposes the corporate scheme to sell pleasure, driving the international epidemic of addiction, depression, and chronic disease.

Robert Lustig, the New York Times best-selling author, reveals the science behind our pursuit of happiness and how it has been subverted by a culture of addiction and depression.

He explains that dopamine, the "reward" neurotransmitter, can lead to addiction when released in extreme amounts, while serotonin, the "contentment" neurotransmitter, is deficient due to constant stress from work, home, money, and internet.

The book provides solutions for overcoming this epidemic, including reducing temptation, increasing contentment, and marshaling a call to action against corporate America and government actors who facilitated it.

With his customary wit and incisiveness, Lustig points directly at the culprits and offers ways to pursue happiness even in the face of overwhelming opposition.
