The High Price of Materialism pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
In The High Price of Materialism, Tim Kasser offers a scientific explanation of how our contemporary culture of consumerism and materialism affects our everyday happiness and psychological health. Other writers have shown that once we have sufficient food, shelter, and clothing, further material gains do little to improve our well-being. Kasser goes beyond these findings to investigate how people's materialistic desires relate to their well-being. He shows that people whose values center on the accumulation of wealth or material possessions face a greater risk of unhappiness, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and problems with intimacy—regardless of age, income, or culture.
Drawing on a decade's worth of empirical data, Kasser examines what happens when we organize our lives around materialistic pursuits. He looks at the effects on our internal experience and interpersonal relationships, as well as on our communities and the world at large. He shows that materialistic values actually undermine our well-being, as they perpetuate feelings of insecurity, weaken the ties that bind us, and make us feel less free. Kasser not only defines the problem but proposes ways we can change ourselves, our families, and society to become less materialistic.
Tim Kasser is Associate Professor of Psychology at Knox College, Illinois.

评分“盛名之下,其实难符”,大概此书的标题提纲比内容更有启发性。越往后面的章节展开论述越糟糕,活像草草收尾的本科论文。书中用来作为支撑的“实验“论据其实漏洞不少,顶多证明出”相关“而非”因果“,这可算是心理学社会学研究的通病和软肋。
