SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The Editors of this unique volume asked some of the world's leading emotion researchers to address 14 fundamental questions about the nature and origins of emotion. Each chapter addresses one of these questions, with often divergent answers from the more than 100 experts represented here. At the end of each chapter, the Editors highlight key areas of agreement and disagreement. In the final chapter, they outline the most important challenges facing the field and the most fruitful avenues for future research. Not a textbook offering a single viewpoint, The Nature of Emotion reveals the central.
