Description:

Este libro es el tratado esencial sobre el placer: el sexual, con los misterios del orgasmo; el de la comida, el del juego y las vias quimicas para experimentarlo con el alcohol y las drogas. Y, por supuesto, el chocolate. Todo ello aderezado con sabrosas anecdotas que abarcan desde la vida sexual de los chimpances hasta el papel de los genes en la consecucion del orgasmo. Paul Martin ha sido profesor de Biologia Conductista en la Universidad de Cambridge. Sus anteriores libros, Counting Sheep, donde exploraba el fenomeno del sueno y el insomnio, y The Sickening Mind, lo han consagrado como uno de los escritores de ciencia divulgativa mas importantes del Reino Unido. Un libro fundamental para aprender que es el placer y como se obtiene. / ""Pleasure"", wrote Oscar Wilde, ""is the only thing worth having a theory about"". What is pleasure? When is it good? When is it bad? What are the best ways to get it? And why does the quest for pleasure sometimes suck us into the quagmire of self-loathing and addiction? This is a book about the lengths people go to for pleasure, and the scientific reasons behind those impulses. Packed with extraordinary insights from science, history and literature, it will inform and amuse in equal measure.
