Abstract: Abstract Most of us are curious about what motivates others. What drives them, why they do the silly, odd, at times clearly mad things they do? What accounts for their addictions, tastes and reactions to others? Why do they spend so much time and eff ort in certain activities? Why do they crave power or recognition to such a degree? (see Figure 7.1)
