...booze or pot may be trying to achieve unnaturally what endorphins do naturally. Still, since individual body chemistries vary, the endorphin theory might account for the fact that some people are habitually happier than others: some might just have a bigger supply of this natural analgesic. It may even suggest, moreover, one concrete way in which human beings might assure their sense of happiness; yet this way-the ingestion of synthetic endorphins-is unnervingly like the drug-popping route to happiness envisioned in Brave New World.

Some defensive administrators suggest that anyone rummaging through an official's files should also be investigated, but Brickman dismisses the idea as self-defeating. "The fact that there are rogues and scandals in every walk of life," he asserts, "does not mean that we need to, or have the right to, have disclosure forms...
