A thoughtful, "gleeful "encyclopedia of emotions, both broad and outrageously specific, from throughout history and around the world.

How do you feel today? Is your heart fluttering in anticipation? Your stomach tight with nerves? Are you falling in love? Feeling a bit miffed? Do you have the heebie-jeebies? Are you antsy with iktsuarpok or filled with nakhes?

Recent research suggests there are only six basic emotions. But if that makes you feel uneasy, suspicious, and maybe even a little bereft, THE BOOK OF HUMAN EMOTIONS is for you. In this unique book, you'll get to travel across the world and through time, learning how different cultures have articulated the human experience and picking up some fascinating new knowledge about yourself along the way.

From the familiar (anger) to the foreign (zal), each entertaining and informative alphabetical entry reveals the surprising connections and fascinating facts behind our emotional lives. Whether you're in search of the perfect word to sum up that cozy feeling you get from being inside on a cold winter's night, surrounded by friends and good food (what the Dutch call gezelligheid), or wondering how nostalgia evolved from a fatal illness to enjoyable self-indulgence, Tiffany Watt Smith draws on history, anthropology, science, art, literature, music, and popular culture to find the answers.

In reading THE BOOK OF HUMAN EMOTIONS, you'll discover feelings you never knew you had (like basorexia, the sudden urge to kiss someone) and gain unexpected insights into why you feel the way you do. Besides, aren't you curious what nginyiwarrarringu means?

人类属于社交群体,很多时候受外界压迫,我们会倾向于藏起消极的情绪从而表现出积极情绪一面的我们。而现实是,我们明白我们需要内化消极情绪,兴许从小父母的“不许哭”开始,我们就在被教导收起自己的负面情绪会更讨喜,成长经历中这个过程被强化了无数遍,因而大多数成年人...

于我而言,这本书并不真的具有词典的功能,我是把她当成随笔来看的。 作者涉猎广泛,对很多情绪的描述角度都蛮别致的,从哲学、文学、医学、心理各方面进行情绪的描摹,有些情绪读来会有眼前一亮的感觉,比如无忧无虑、归家之喜、自信。当然,有些情绪的描述就比较简单、平淡、...

如果用几个词来形容自己,你会说什么?冷静、快乐、焦虑、妒忌、伤感……你看,人们总是下意识地用“情绪”来表达自己。 在日常生活中,你是否经常觉得无聊、整天闷闷不乐?你是否曾经为遭遇一连串的挫折而愁苦烦忧?你是否经常因为自己的坏脾气而觉得喜怒不定,却不知如何是好...
