Rezensionen

Now reorganized, and with new chapters on the brain and on happiness, this updated second edition will continue to provide students with an engaging introduction to the psychology of emotion.

-W. Gerrod Parrott, Professor of Psychology, Georgetown University, USA

This book is terrific-up to date, well-written, comprehensive, accessible, and enjoyable. Diverse views in the field are presented in a balanced manner. Questions of what emotions are, how they came to be, and why we need them are addressed. This is a great resource for undergraduates, graduate students, and emotion scholars.
