This book presents 200 oil paintings, integrated with concise text, to explore one of the most fascinating topics in the human mind-human nature.

Human nature, shared across humanity and transcending personal and cultural differences, is a dynamic interplay of instincts, tendencies, desires, habits, and cognition. Rooted in survival, pleasure, and pain avoidance, it is shaped by biological foundations of cognition and emotion while adapting to diverse needs.

Interwoven with rationality and emotion, human nature balances self-interest with moral emotions, guiding actions, shaping cooperation, and forming the foundation of civilization. While endless desires drive motivation, personal and general will direct actions toward well-being, fostering both individual happiness and a thriving society.

Understanding human nature through the lens of psychology and neuroscience helps harmonize needs, cultivate inner peace, and nurture healthy social relationships-paving the way for a more fulfilling life and a more harmonious world.
