"Pathways to Pleasure" offers an alternative approach to enhancing one's pleasure in everyday life - without drugs, harmful or addictive behaviour, or simplistic "recipes for feeling good". Drawing on current research in psychology and the growing field of brain chemistry, the authors provide a commonsense guide to casting off bad habits and the compulsive pursuit of passing thrills in favour of "natural highs" and a serious quest for personal fulfillment. They explain in clear language what has been learned about the role of brain chemistry in all pleasurable activities and devote special attention to the skills and attitudes that increase a person's ability to relax, create, enjoy - and intensify - the pleasure that results.
