About this book

How Emotions Are Made by Lisa Feldman Barrett is a book that challenges the conventional wisdom about emotions and how they work. The book argues that emotions are not innate, universal, or hardwired in the brain, but rather constructed by the brain based on our experiences, culture, and context. The book also explores the implications of this new science of emotion for our health, relationships, and society.

Feldman Barrett is a psychologist at Northeastern University whose research argues that emotions are not universal biological reactions waiting to be set off, but constructions the brain assembles out of bodily signals and learned concepts, which would mean there is no fingerprint for anger to go looking for.
