A Philosophical Exploration
'one of the best books on the emotions written so far in this hot and sexy new field' -Robert C. Solomon, International Philosophical Quarterly 2001
'This extraordinarily insightful book, lucidly written, provides new understandings and challenges that every student of emotion will need to consider.' -Paul Ekman, Professor of Psychology, University of California, San Francisco
'I found the book a most impressive performance and I recommend it with enthusiasm to anyone interested in the latest word in the philosophy of emotions and anyone interested in teaching a course in the field' -Robert C. Solomon, International Philosophical Quarterly 2001
'what he [Goldie] offers us is a carefully nuanced 'exploration' of the various facets of emotional experience and emotion' - Robert C. Solomon, International Philosophical Quarterly 2001
'commendable new book.' -Nicholas Fern, SpectatorPeter Goldie opens the path to a deeper understanding of our emotional lives through a lucid philosophical exploration of this surprisingly neglected topic.
