A key text for academics and researchers in a huge variety of disciplines, this book gathers the wisdom of researchers from many of them. Neurobiologists, philosophers, sociologists, developmental, physiological and social psychologists as well as social anthropologists are all represented in this wide-ranging volume, working together to establish an integrative model of emotion research. In the last two decades, interest in the emotions has increased significantly in various disciplines such as psychology, neurobiology, social anthropology, sociology, history, philosophy and linguistics. Although the individual disciplines are studying overlapping issues in relation to emotions, the scientific approaches to these issues have often remained unrelated. This gap is especially obvious between the sciences and the humanities, where cooperative approaches hardly exist. All branches concerned realize that this missing interdisciplinary cooperation is a shortcoming and are thus demanding that the interaction between the disciplines should increase. And here is one text at least that goes a long way to solving the impasse.
