'A charming, sound, sane map to the world of emotions, the perfect guide.'
DANIEL GOLEMAN, Author of Emtional Intelligence
'Emotions Revealed showcases Paul Ekman's forty years of academic research and great common sense, providing a fascinating and enormously helpful picture of our emotional lives.'
JOHN CLEESE
'Paul Ekman is one of those rare thinkers who can connect what scientists have learned with what the rest of us wonder about in our everyday lives. If you read this book, you'll never look at other people in quite the same way again. Emotions Revealed is a tour de force.'
MALCOLM GLADWELL
'No one in the world has studied facial expressions as deeply as Paul Ekman. In Emotions Revealed he presents - clearly, vividly and in the most accessible way - his fascinating observations about the overt and covert expressions of emotions we all encounter hundreds of times daily, but so often misunderstand or fail to see. There has not been a book on this subject of such range and insight since Darwin's famous Expression of the Emotions more than a century ago.'
OLIVER SACKS
Recall a time when you were blissfully happy, utterly despondent, or furiously angry - a single, raw emotion can be an incredibly powerful thing to experience. Whatever culture or background we come from, emotions play a vital role in all of our lives and more specifically in every relationship and interaction that takes place within them. They can add colour and drama to our existence whether subtly or passionately felt, but they can also be incredibly confusing and even damaging.
In Emotions Revealed, Paul Ekman, a world-renowned psychologist and expert on non verbal communication, draws on forty years of groundbreaking research to provide a revealing, fascinating and above all, practical tour. In doing so, he explores when and why we become emotional and what happens when we do, from the changes that occur inside our bodies to the signals that we give through our body language, voices and our faces - the muscle movements of which can be combined into more than 10,000 configurations.
Within the pages of this stunning and mind-opening book, Ekman answers such questions as: What are the most common emotional triggers and is it possible to bring them under control? Why do we sometimes become overly emotional or experience an emotional response that is inappropriate and can we do anything about it? Why are some people good at masking their emotions, while others wear their hearts on their sleeves? Emotions Revealed contains a test to find out how good you are at spotting emotions, help in recognising and understanding their subtlest signs in ourselves and others, and exercises to improve your awareness of the bodily sensations they produce. Most importantly of all, it contains information on how to apply all of this to everyday life - we couldn't live without our emotions, but it is possible to live better with them.
