Exploring and Treating Acquisitive Desire: Living in the Material World
Kottler, Jeffrey A., Ph.D.
Demonstrates how what we can finally control us - the terminal stage of the social disease of acquisitive desire for material things. Jeffrey Kottler makes clear that satisfaction comes not from owning possessions, but from their legitimate use for amusement, stimulation or learning.
