Drawing on philosophy  literature and science  Goldie considers the roles of culture and evolution in the development of our emotional capabilities. He examines the links between emotion  mood  and character  and places the emotions in the context of consciousness  thought  feeling  and imagination. He explains how it is that we are able to make sense of our own and other peoples emotions  and how we can explain the very human things which emotions lead us to do. He argues that it is only from the personal point of view that thoughts  reasons  feelings  and actions come into view.  This fascinating book gives an accessible but penetrating exploration of an important but mysterious subject. Any reader interested in emotion and its role in understanding our lives will find much to think about here.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67931893170229,"sku":"ByrdShop_0198238916","price":248.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780198238911.jpg?v=1794218936","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-emotions-a-philosophical-exploration-9780198238911","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
