The science of sin : why we do the things we shouldn't

Lewis, Jack, Dr2018
Books
In today's society it can often seem like we are utterly surrounded by temptation, from the ease of online shopping and the stream of targeted advertising encouraging us to greedily acquire yet more stuff, to the coffee, cake and fast-food shops that line our streets, beckoning us in to over-indulge on all the wrong things. It can feel like a constant battle to stay away from the temptations we know we shouldn't give in to. Where exactly do these urges come from? 'The Science of Sin' brings together the latest findings from neuroscience research to shed light on the universally fascinating subject of temptation.
