A passion. A hatred. A jealousy. A murder.Cory has been following her for months. The longer this goes on, the deeper his obsession grows. Experience has taught him that catching this girl won't be simple. She is too smart, too cunning, and too slippery for an ordinary plan to work. He'll have to be methodical, to slowly gain her trust.

He thinks he's in control, but it's not until he has blood on his hands that he realizes he has gone too far.

A new, biologically driven model of human behavior in which reason is tethered to the evolutionarily older autonomic, instinctive, and associative systems. In Reason and Less, Vinod Goel explains the workings of the tethered mind. Reason does not float on top of our biology but is tethered to evolutionarily older autonomic, instinctive, and associative systems.

Goel’s commonsense account drives human behavior back into the biology, where it belongs, and provides a richer set of tools for understanding how we pursue food, sex, and politics. Goel takes the reader on a journey through psychology (cognitive, behavioral, developmental, and evolutionary), neuroscience, philosophy, ethology, economics, and political science to explain the workings of the tethered mind.
