Paperback. Condition: Very Good. THE FIFTH INFLUENCE OR, THE DIALECTICS OF PLEASURE Th is book is about everything you ever wanted to know about pleasure, but did not know where to fi nd the answers. - Alexander Ovsich Ecclesiastes 3-12 and 3-13: 3I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live; also that it is God s gift to man that every one should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil . - 8-15 it says. And I commend enjoym- ent for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink, and enjoy himself, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of life which God gives him under the sun ; To my knowledge, only one psychological theory of motivational interactions has been put forward: Cabanac holds that pleasure is the common currency guaranteeing the trade-off necessary for achieving the ranking of concurrent motivations. In other words, in his view, organisms decide to commit to the activity that maximizes pleasure. - Patrick Anselme Th e reasons that Michel Cabanac gives for his views on pleasure are good reasons, because they are supported by arguments about evidence, and not simply opinions based upon introspection.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Michel Cabanac est un convaincu: l'étude du comportement mérite à nouveau sa place dans les livres de physiologie. Sur les traces de Pavlov et Darwin, ce docteur de l'université Laval nous retrace l'histoire de ces sciences. Car avant de constituer des disciplines distinctes, psychologie, éthologie et physiologie ne faisaient qu'une et aucun des grands savants n'aurait imaginé étudier l'une sans l'autre. À travers une multitude d'expériences, l'auteur nous enseigne par exemple que les animaux, à l'image des humains, choisissent parfois en fonction du plaisir un comportement plutôt qu'un autre. Tout ne serait donc pas affaire d'instinct !Pédagogique et richement illustré, l'ouvrage de M. Cabanac s'adresse aux initiés comme aux néophytes. Révisez l'étude de Pavlov sur les sécrétions salivaires chez le chien, découvrez l'expérience de Thorndike sur les chats et apprenez à travers ce bestiaire d'expériences comment comportement et physiologie sont liés.…
