How Emotions Are Made
509 EGP
A groundbreaking exploration of emotion that challenges traditional views by presenting emotions not as universal reactions but as constructed experiences shaped by brain, body, and culture through predictive processes.
This scientific work revolutionizes understanding of human emotions by arguing they are not hardwired reactions but rather constructed experiences created by the brain’s predictive processes. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and anthropology, it demonstrates how emotions emerge from the interplay of physical sensations, cultural learning, and conceptual knowledge. Written for both academic and general audiences, the book combines rigorous research with accessible explanations to challenge long-held assumptions about emotional universality and offer new perspectives on mental health, decision-making, and human behavior.
