Books by Daniel Z. Lieberman, Michael E. Long mentioned on podcasts
Daniel Z. Lieberman and Michael E. Long's book The Molecule of More was featured and discussed across various episodes of the Huberman Lab podcast and ChooseFI. On Huberman Lab, Andrew Huberman recommended the book as an excellent resource for anyone looking to understand dopamine beyond the context of addiction, exploring its everyday role in human pursuit, motivation, craving, and desire. Huberman specifically highlighted the book's breakdown of neurological pathways and its description of 'Here and Now molecules,' such as serotonin and endocannabinoids, which allow individuals to experience sensations and pleasure in the present moment rather than constantly projecting into the future. Other podcast guests and contributors, including Dr. Charles Zuker and Jeff Cavaliere, referenced The Molecule of More on Huberman Lab to illustrate the complex nature of neurochemicals like dopamine, emphasizing how the molecule can simultaneously elicit feelings of pleasure and a powerful craving for more. Similarly, on ChooseFI, a host recommended the book after reading it, sharing that the text profoundly impacted their life, thinking patterns, and overall perspective on human motivation. Throughout these discussions, the book was consistently praised for its clear and accessible exploration of how brain chemistry influences daily human behavior and decision-making.
