  • Spellbound: Modern Science, Ancient Magic, and the Hidden Potential of the Unconscious Mind

    The unconscious mind is hidden in darkness, but it influences your life in ways you can’t imagine. It determines whether you will be enthusiastic or bored, full of energy or barely able to keep your eyes open. Your unconscious can make you compassionate or fill you with hatred. It chooses what you desire and who you will fall in love with. It can solve seemingly impossible problems with the gift of inspiration, and, sometimes, it possesses you completely, plunging you into an alien world of mystical experience.

  • The Molecule of More

    Why are we obsessed with the things we want and bored when we get them? Why is addiction "perfectly logical" to an addict? Why does love change so quickly from passion to indifference?

    The Molecule of More is an international bestseller that’s been translated into 20 languages.
