Review: How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain

How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

For some reason I thought this would be some book about raising your EQ, but it turned out to be quite interesting. It sounds like it could be quite revolutionary in psychology/neuroscientific circles, but I'm not really in a position to comment one way or the other. Still, very interesting to see how what we see as very basic emotions might be culturally learned, rather than innate.
