Kniha vás seznámí s tím, jak na lidský organismus působí šest klíčových látek – dopamin, oxytocin, serotonin, kortizol, endorfin a testosteron – neurotransmitery, které si lidský organismus dokáže sám vyrábět. Tato kniha vám ukáže, jak je možné ovládat fungování chemické továrny vašeho vlastního těla i jak se naučit využívat plný potenciál své mysli a stát se tak tou nejlepší verzí sebe samého. Anebo taky ne. David JP Phillips se celý svůj dospělý život věnoval studiu a přednášení o komunikaci založené na poznatcích z neurovědy, biologie a psychologie. Spolu se svým výzkumným týmem identifikoval 110 různých způsobů, kterými spolu lidé navzájem komunikují. Ale až poté, co si prošel dlouhým obdobím depresí, vyvinul svoji metodu sebe-řízení, založenou na pochopení schopnosti člověka komunikovat sám se sebou. Jeho 3 přednášky na TEDx patří s 10 miliony zhlédnutí k těm nejúspěšnějším. Kniha vyšla nejdříve ve švédštině, ale autorská práva na její překlad byla během pěti měsíců prodána do více jak dvaceti zemí.
