Sinossi

What is the impact of dopamine in our lives? Why does the brain sometimes seem to make decisions that are beyond our control? Why are some temptations so difficult to resist? The Economics of Dopamine is the key to understanding these dynamics and much more.

In this book, the reader is taken by the hand and accompanied through the mysterious world of dopamine to discover its deeper impact. It will be possible to understand how the 'pleasure neurotransmitter' influences the brain, personal choices and people's behaviour. 

Through reading this book, the reader will learn to:

- understand the crucial role of dopamine in the regulation of pleasure, motivation and gratification;
- understand the secrets of the pleasure industry and discover how it uses dopamine to influence human behaviour;
- discover how dopamine binds to interpersonal relationships and how it can enhance or impair people's social lives;
- explore the interplay between dopamine and the world of work, discovering how to exploit this knowledge to increase productivity and job satisfaction;
- recognising neuromarketing strategies and defending oneself against persuasive techniques;
- learning how to manage the dopamine economy to make more informed decisions in line with one's values and long-term goals.

The Dopamine Economy offers a comprehensive and in-depth overview of the role dopamine plays in our brains and daily lives, with a multi-disciplinary approach and information based on scientific research and practical tips. Exploring topics such as pleasure, motivation, interpersonal relationships, the world of work and financial decisions, the book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how our current reward system influences our choices and behaviour.

    Betsy Polk and Maggie Chotas have learned something powerful: when women work together they discover a level of support, flexibility, confidence, accountability, and freedom to be themselves that they rarely find in other work relationships. Drawing on their own twelve-year partnership and from interviews with 125 women business partners, Polk and Chotas demolish the myths that keep women from collaborating and offer advice for handling a host of potential challenges. This groundbreaking book shows that when women team up—combining complementary skills, channeling their egos into the partnership, and encouraging each other—they can work as full equals to achieve something that's exponentially greater than each woman alone.

    The Health of Human Trafficking...

    Slavery has existed since ancient times, was integral to building most civilizations, and was written into the Code of Hammurabi (Wells, 2008). It has appropriately been called “the world’s oldest trade” (Vink, 2003). Although Mauritania became the last country in the world to criminalize slavery in 2007, it is estimated there are over 45 million people enslaved worldwide today (McDougall, 2015; Walk Free Foundation, 2016). By means of comparison, historians generally agree approximately 12 million slaves were traded during the entire 400-year Trans- 
    Atlantic slave trade (Manning, 1992; Nunn, 2008).  
        Modern-day slavery is also known as human trafficking and has been documented in all 50 states (U.S. Department of State, 2016). Although the United States and international communities have cooperated to outlaw trafficking activities and protect victims with the passage of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) in 2000, much of the focus has been on legal protection. Little progress has been made in addressing the health needs of victims of human trafficking (Hom & Woods, 2013). Human trafficking harms people physically and emotionally, but health is the least understood aspect of the trafficking process. Notably, trafficking has been called a “public health crisis”, and a “pandemic” (de Chesnay, 2013, p. 901; Goodwin Veenema, Thornton, & Corley, p. 864). The health care response, however, has been “largely neglected in anti-trafficking work”, particularly when compared to efforts in law enforcement, immigrant law, and public policy (Zimmerman, Hossain, & Watts, 2011, p. 327).
