Publisher Description: Interest in emotions has blossomed over the last decade. From psychopathology to the cognitive sciences, research has stimulated the creation of improved measurement techniques, as well as new ways of conceptualizing behavior and feelings. Reflecting the full range of work being done across disciplines, this volume authoritatively reports on an ever-growing, important body of research. Completely up to date, the Handbook is a basic resource for everything that is known about emotions. The book is organized into five sections. Laying the groundwork for the chapters that follow, a broad inter-disciplinary overview demonstrates the vast territory that is affected by scholarship in the field. Biological approaches and basic psychological processes are covered in chapters that explore how feelings relate to other aspects of human behavior. The impact of group and family processes is considered, and, finally, specific emotions that have been widely studied - happiness, exhilaration, disgust, fear, anxiety, and shame - are examined in detail. Written by noted authorities, chapters address the models and research emanating from clinical and social psychology, development, biology, neurophysiology, behavior genetics, sociology, history, anthropology, and philosophy. Taken together, the chapters provide a wealth of information that was hitherto available only in scattered publications. A definitive resource, Handbook of Emotions will be valued by all professionals concerned with human behavior. Regardless of discipline, and no matter where one's particular interests lie - in normal and abnormal issues related to emotion, in emotional development, or in the relationship of emotion to otherestablished fields or subfields - this book is the indispensable reference.
