This book is about pleasure. It’s also about pain. Most important, it’s about how to find the delicate balance between the two, and why now more than ever finding balance is essential. We’re living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, sexting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, tweeting… The increased numbers, variety, and potency is staggering. The smartphone is the modern-day hypodermic needle, delivering digital dopamine 24/7 for a wired generation. As such we’ve all become vulnerable to compulsive overconsumption.
In Dopamine Nation, Dr. Anna Lembke, psychiatrist and author, explores the exciting new scientific discoveries that explain why the relentless pursuit of pleasure leads to pain…and what to do about it. Condensing complex neuroscience into easy-to-understand metaphors, Lembke illustrates how finding contentment and connectedness means keeping dopamine in check. The lived experiences of her patients are the gripping fabric of her narrative. Their riveting stories of suffering and redemption give us all hope for managing our consumption and transforming our lives. In essence, Dopamine Nation shows that the secret to finding balance is combining the science of desire with the wisdom of recovery.
##Pleasure-pain balance這部分非常引人深思
評分##年度最佳。 在這個多巴胺橫流,廉價快樂泛濫,智能手機成為注射器的時代。我們終該改變點兒什麼。 I saw in their brokenness my own vulnerability and humanity. I was reassured that I was not alone in my doubts, fears, and weaknesses.

評分##A very well-written and well-structured introduction to pleasure, pain, their balance, and contemporary strategies. Concepts were redundant for me as a neuroscience student, but examples are helpful for illustrating how others, and by extension everyone including me, may fall into addiction – very sobering in that sense.
評分##解釋瞭各種addiction中pleasure和pain的平衡關係。學到最有操作性的是dopamine fast這個概念。限製使用高dopamine的事物,能讓dopamine system重新敏感起來。另一點是如果想要戒掉一個壞習慣,要徹底斷絕至少一個月,纔能真的起效。過度的手機使用和進食都是addiction的形式。
評分##警示名言類型的書,但總覺得科學性還是差瞭點,可能因為圖書寫作的緣故,參考資料沒有用文內引用的形式,都寫在後麵瞭?

評分##作者對於大麻和psychedelic drugs隻呈現片麵的證據和陳述,甚至對抗抑鬱藥都有些偏見。此外,行文間透露瞭一股judgmental和privileged的氣息。書裏的有些知識點是還不錯,但我不喜歡這個作者。(沒準哪天就在學校裏遇見瞭...)
評分##比較基礎入門級彆
