«Possessed: Why We Want More Than We Need» is the psychology essay by Bruce Hood, published by Penguin Books in paperback (224 pages, in English).
Bruce Hood explores the human need to possess and how it shapes personal and collective decisions. Drawing on his own and others' research, he shows that the sense of ownership is an emotional state that manifests from childhood and links consumerism to an illusory happiness that harms society and the planet.
