Part self-help, part history and philosophy of science, this is a NOOK book on emotions for people who think in pictures. Gain a deeper and richer understanding of your emotions. We will look at some of the different words for emotions, how our faces and bodies express them, and a few of the brain structures that generate them. We will examine major contributions of philosophy, biology, psychology and neuroscience to the study of emotions. Finally we will consider the nature of feelings, personal and mental, as distinct from emotions. I have written this book to share insights gained from 15 years of publishing learning materials for people with autism, learning difficulties and sensory issues.
