Description
Demystifying Emotions presents a thorough typology of emotion theories, bridging the gap between psychological and philosophical perspectives. Agnes Moors synthesizes decades of research to create an organized framework for understanding how emotions function, what causes them, and why they matter to human experience.
The book examines multiple theoretical approaches, from evolutionary psychology to cognitive theories, embodied emotion frameworks, and phenomenological perspectives. Rather than advocating for a single viewpoint, Moors demonstrates how different theories illuminate various aspects of emotional life. This balanced approach makes the work valuable for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking to understand the complexity of human emotions.
Part of the Studies in Emotion and Social Interaction series, this volume serves as both an introduction for newcomers and a reference for established scholars in emotion research.
