Emotion and Culture by Shinobu Kitayama

This work examines the increasing evidence that emotions are not discrete, "hardwired" biological events but are influenced and shaped through social, cultural and linguistic processes. By integrating a diversity of scientific approaches, "Emotion and Culture" goes a long way toward showing that culture penetrates deeply into virtually every component process of emotion: cognitive, linguistic and even psychological and neurochemical elements. Contributions from researchers in a wide range of scientific fields make this book significant in the theory and research for the premise that emotion and culture are mutually and reciprocally related.
