About the book
Lisa Feldman Barrett challenges the traditional view of emotions, arguing that our feelings are not universal, pre-programmed reactions but constructions of the brain based on learning, context, and culture. The neuroscientist reveals how emotions work, why they are mentally constructed, and how understanding this process can transform our relationships and personal well-being.
