Includes bibliographical references and index.Have you ever noticed that what is thrilling on Monday becomes boring by Friday? Even exciting relationships, stimulating jobs, and breathtaking works of art lose their sparkle after a while. It's not just the good things. People also get used to dirty air, bad relationships, risk, lies, and misinformation. Why do we habituate?
