Recognized as the definitive reference, this handbook brings together leading experts from multiple psychological subdisciplines to examine one of today's most dynamic areas of research. Coverage encompasses the biological and neuroscientific underpinnings of emotions, as well as developmental, social and personality, cognitive, and clinical perspectives. The volume probes how people understand, experience, express, and perceive affective phenomena and explores connections to behavior and health across the lifespan. Concluding chapters present cutting-edge work on a range of specific emotions.

Critic reviews

"Offering the most comprehensive coverage imaginable, this handbook continues to occupy a unique position in the emotion field. Experts will find it invaluable for keeping current, and novices will find it an appealing and accessible introduction." (Susan T. Fiske, PhD, Eugene Higgins professor of psychology and professor of public affairs, Princeton University)

“The fourth edition of Handbook of Emotions once again assembles a brilliant set of chapters from the world’s foremost experts on every aspect of emotion. It is easy to see why this accessible and authoritative compendium has become, and still remains, the bible of the field. An essential resource for researchers and students alike.” (Daniel Gilbert, PhD, Edgar Pierce professor of psychology, Harvard University)

"[An] excellent (and nearly exhaustive) reference...for emotion scholars in the social sciences and humanities.” (Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture, published on: 2019-04-24)

Content was relative however more practical examples would be great. Like scenario based case study examples. If this book could be combined with the book verbal judo it would be taken to a whole new level. Overall excellent job!

I am taking a break from this book to say it appears for your peers, right?
Promise to finish soon, I must thank Lisa for her book on Emotions in 2017. Truly pulling my civilian science of Emotions current.

I was shocked to see it was 5 years old!! I have been at 2021 books, oldest. Your book hit me as so flowing and eye opening on emotion as thought itself. I was prepared well with Dan Siegel's newest Developing Mind, Hidden Spring, where Mark Solms fearlessly defines Consciousness as 'That which helps us do better " I was expecting follow up from you. That I could read so much and not hear of your ideas....

Emotions by Mlodnow ?? followed your ideas to a T, but lightly.

I see many high quality books with this science on Spontaneous human activity. All new LANGUAGE GAME, M. Christianson is same science spontaneous human activity !! Easterly, James Scott in Two Cheers for Anarchy & Think like a state, it is the stuff of new science for more humans like me.

The content of an audio book must be heard, and the quality of the narration determines the quality of the content. the muffled voice of the narrator and the pace of its reading, combined with the fog of its academic prose render this book rather dispensable.

The primacy of sound

I made a mistake buying this because I had listened to one of Dr Barret's other books and enjoyed it. I did not read the description of this one carefully enough. It is a collection of contributions from various researchers on emotions, and some of those I have no interest in at all. This is not a book to be listened to start-to-finish unless you are a psychologist. Even then you would probably want to skip chapters and go right to the ones that interest you most, but then audiobook is not the correct format to do this.

Some of the auditors are OK, others sound a little like AI.

Very technical. Lots of jargon.
