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?

人是情绪的动物。 情绪是什么呢?古希腊名医希波克拉底提出体液说,即人的四种体液组成,血液,黑胆汁,黄胆汁和粘液质,能够塑造性格,影响心情。达尔文在著作中指出,人的情绪不是固化的反应 而是仍在进行的固化的结果。威廉~詹姆士则认为身体反应就是情绪,而后才有主观...

文/岸晓风 在日常生活中,我们经常听到这样的提问:“今天心情怎么样?”,那么,对方估计会回答,“嗯,今天很开心”,或者说“今天糟透了”。总之,一般而言,我们想象不到除此之外还是否有3-5种回答法。 显然,这是很不符合实际的。月有阴晴圆缺,人有悲欢离合,此事古难...
