This paradigm shift has far-reaching implications not only for psychology but also medicine, the legal system, airport security, child-rearing, & even meditation.
Leading the charge is psychologist & neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett, whose theory of emotion is driving a deeper understanding of the mind & brain, & what it means to be human.

How Emotions Are Made reveals the latest research & intriguing practical applications of the new science of emotion, mind, & brain.
