This book is an ideal introduction to work in psychology and the
neurosciences. Walking us through the key topics including
historical, developmental and cultural perspectives, the book
shows that the different types of emotions each is an evolved
adaptive structure that serves a functional purpose. It is shown
how these types are expressed differently on the human face, how
they are developed in the child, and how they influence and are
influenced by culture, health and the ways persons think and
perceive. Knowledge of emotions is essential for anyone who plans
to work, or whose work already involves, helping, instructing,
negotiating, or controlling others. This introductory-level book
teaches undergraduates as well as general readers the main
components and methods, and helps readers to better understand
how emotions operate both within the body and out in the world.
It is a valuable resource for undergraduate students in
psychology, nursing, social work, physiotherapy and occupational
therapy find this book an important accompaniment.
