The Laws of Human Nature - Introduction

My interest in the evolution of man led me to study myself more closely. After all, I am an ordinary person. The laws that govern human nature, therefore, should be discoverable in me.

Enter into my laboratory. I am going to dissect human nature and show that the only way to happiness is to study yourself so that you become convinced of the necessity of forgetting yourself.
