Written in an engaging format, the book enables readers to appreciate the role emotions play in their lives.

Providing greater insight and depth than existing books, Emotion provides a holistic and conceptual view of the fi eld that gives students a broader understanding of the mechanisms underlying emotions. The author covers past and current emotion theories, explores individual emotions and their representation in the brain, the role of emotions for behavior and cognition, and interindividual differences.
