Description

Every philosopher, economist, and prophet diagnosed the same condition. Nobody connected them. Until now.

The Wanting Mind is a free, beautifully illustrated interactive book that maps human nature onto a single spectrum — from Type 0 (the disengaged) through Type 4 (the transcendent). It explores why we extract, why we consume, and how some of us learn to generate and give back.
