About this product

Product Information

What happens in our brains to make us feel fear, love, hate, anger, joy? Do we control our emotions, or do they control us? Do animals have emotions? How can traumatic experiences in early childhood influence adult behavior, even though we have no conscious memory of them? In The Emotional Brain, Joseph LeDoux investigates the origins of human emotions and explains that many exist as part of complex neural systems that evolved to enable us to survive. One of the principal researchers profiled in Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence, LeDoux is a leading authority in the field of neural science. In this provocative book, he explores the brain mechanisms underlying our emotions -- mechanisms that are only now being revealed.

"Joseph LeDoux is a superb guide to that ultimate frontier in understanding our emotional life, the brain."-- Daniel Goldman, author ofEmotional Intelligence, "The Emotional Brain is an excellent introduction to the strange history of the neurobiology of emotion and a preview of what lies ahead." -- Antonio R. Damasio, Scientific American, "[The Emotional Brain]is vivid and convincing in its description of the central mechanisms of emotion, and is directly applicable to understanding anxiety, the most common ingredient of emotional disorders. It's a terrifically good book."-- Keith Oatley,New Scientist, "The Emotional Brainis an excellent introduction to the strange history of the neurobiology of emotion and a preview of what lies ahead."-- Antonio R. Damasio,Scientific American, "Joseph LeDoux is a superb guide to that ultimate frontier in understanding our emotional life, the brain." -- Daniel Goldman, author of Emotional Intelligence, "Highly accessible...LeDoux's musical and literary references reveal a man clearly in touch with his own emotional feelings.

  • Great so far

    I love this author, he is excellence at large structural writing and explaining just enough to follow his point. Very good at transitioning from one idea to the next.
