Emotion by Dylan Evans

Was love invented by European poets in the middle ages, or is it part of human nature? Will winning the lottery really make you happy? Is it possible to build robots that have feelings? These are just some of the intriguing questions explored in this new guide to the latest thinking about the emotions. Drawing on a wide range of scientific research, from anthropology and psychology to neuroscience and artificial intelligence, Emotion: The Science of Sentiment takes the reader on a fascinating journey into the human heart.

Dylan Evans is a Research Fellow at King's College London's Department of Philosophy, where he leads a study on the evolution of emotions. He has worked as a filmmaker and a psychotherapist in the past.
