The Psychology of Desire
Providing a comprehensive perspective on human desire, this volume brings together leading experts from multiple psychological subdisciplines.

The book also examines pathological forms of desire and the complex relationship between desire and happiness. The concluding section analyzes specific applied domains--eating, sex, aggression, substance use, shopping, and social media.
