A Human History Of Emotion
How have our feelings influenced human history?
And how have our emotions been experienced and understood over time?
We humans like to think of ourselves as rational beings who, as a species, have been able to survive by using logic and calculation. However, emotions played a significant role in a lot of the most significant events in our history rather than hard facts. Without an understanding of emotions, it is impossible to properly comprehend events such as the fall of Rome, the Scientific Revolution, the birth of the world’s major religions, and some of humanity’s bloodiest wars.
Congratulations Richard Firth-Godbehere - much deserved recognition for one of my favourite books!
