While human beings might be rational animals, they are emotional
animals as well. Emotions play a central role in all areas of our
lives and if we are to have a proper understanding of human life
and activity, we ought to have a good grasp of the emotions.
Michael S. Brady structures Emotion: The Basics around two basic,
yet fundamental, questions: What are emotions? And what do emotions
do? In answering these questions Brady provides insight into a core
component of all our lives, covering: the nature of emotion;
emotion, knowledge, and understanding; emotion and action; emotions
and social groups; emotion, morality, and art. In this concise and
insightful introduction, Brady explains why we are often better off
as a result of emotion rather than reason being in the driving
seat, as our lives, both individual and social, would be
significantly impoverished without the emotions. With a glossary of
key terms and suggestions for further reading, Emotion: The Basics
is an ideal starting point for anyone seeking a full introduction
to the philosophical study of emotion.
