How emotions are made : the secret life of the brain

Barrett, Lisa Feldman2018
Books
Most scientists would agree that emotions come from specific parts of the brain, and that we feel them whenever they're triggered by the world around us. This understanding has been around since Aristotle - but what if it's wrong? In 'How Your Emotions Are Made', pioneering psychologist Lisa Feldman Barrett draws on the latest scientific evidence to reveal that our ideas about emotion are dramatically, even dangerously, out of date - and that we have been paying the price for our mislaid beliefs.
