Overview

Have you ever looked at the news and felt that the world is too complex and chaotic to understand? From economic crises and distant conflicts to pandemics and culture wars, it often feels like we're adrift in a sea of noise. What if there was a single tool, a master key, capable of decoding the hidden logic behind all these events? This book argues that such a tool exists, and it's more familiar than you think: Abraham Maslow's Pyramid of Needs. In The Maslow Goggles, Hennes Anderson takes you on a fascinating and eye-opening journey, using the famous hierarchy of needs as a universal lens to analyze our world. In clear, informal language filled with relatable analogies, the author shows how the struggle for physiological needs shapes the contest for resources; how the quest for safety defines our borders and laws; how the hunger for belonging fuels both nationalism and war; and how the competition for esteem plays out in the arena of global power. This is not just a psychology book; it's a multidisciplinary masterclass that connects history, politics, economics, and technology. You will understand why empires fall, why financial crises happen, how technology threatens and promises to reshape our society, and what lies at the root of our greatest challenges, from climate change to global inequality. Each chapter unpacks a layer of our complex world, making the incomprehensible, comprehensible. If you are looking for a powerful new way to think about society, politics, and your own place in the world, this book is your compass. By the end of this read, you won't just have learned about Maslow's Pyramid; you will begin to see the world through it, armed with a clarity that is both startling and transformative.
