Summary "Emotion Science is a state-of-the-art introduction to the study of emotion. Drawing on a wide array of research from psychology and neuroscience, the author presents an integrated picture of our current understanding of normal as well as disordered emotions such as anxiety and depression. The author draws a clear distinction between emotions, moods and feelings, and suggests how they can be understood within an integrated model." "The book is ideal for undergraduate and graduate courses in psychology and related areas, and will be a useful reference for active researchers."--BOOK JACKET
