We’re excited to be able to give away a signed copy of Professor Bruce Hood's book "Possessed: Why we want more than we need" exclusively to our members.
A book which takes a fascinating look at how ownership came to control us - and what we can do about it. As the blurb points out: "Our love affair with our possessions seems to be all-consuming, even as our planet reaches breaking point. Despite the constant warnings about our future, we are reluctant to change our ways when it comes to accumulating more and more things. Why is this?"
Professor Bruce Hood is a professor of Developmental Psychology in Society at the University of Bristol and the author of SuperSense, The Self Illusion and The Domesticated Brain. He is an elected Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, the British Psychology Society and the Royal Institution of Great Britain.
