Dopamine Control by Nick Trenton is a self-help guide about attention and the brain's reward chemical. The book argues that dopamine shapes habits and addictions, such as compulsive eating or scrolling through social media, and that apps and devices are built to capture attention. According to the book, readers can reset the brain's reward system through practical steps: changing surroundings, shaping habits, sleep, routines and limits on highly stimulating activities. It aims to help people work with more purpose, single-task, and turn long-term goals into steady action. The book describes these strategies as broad behavioural tools rather than clinical care.
