Michael Jawer has done an excellent job of gathering an enormous collection of research evidence confirming links between the brain, the body and emotions. Students and academics who are starting out to explore these links may find many gems of interest in this book. For instance, Jawer's list of 36 emotions exceeds most of the lists of emotions I have seen. To some extent this is due to his looser... more
