文档介绍：Cognition and Emotion
The relationship between thinking and feeling has puzzled philosophers for centuries,
but more recently has e a dominant focus in psychology and in the brain sciences.
This second edition of the highly praised Cognition and Emotion examines everything
from past philosophical to current psychological perspectives in order to offer a novel
understanding of both normal emotional experience and the emotional disorders.
The authors integrate work on normal emotions with work on the emotional
disorders. Although there are many influential theories of normal emotions within the
cognition and emotion literature, these theories rarely address the issue of disordered
emotions. Similarly, there are numerous theories that seek to explain one or more
emotional disorders (., depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and phobias), but
which rarely discuss normal emotions. The present book draws these separate strands
together and introduces a theoretical framework that can be applied to both normal
and disordered emotions. It also provides a core cognition and emotion textbook
through the inclusion of prehensive review of the basic literature. The book
includes chapters on the historical background and philosophy of emotion, reviews
the main theories of normal emotions and of emotional disorders, and includes separ-
ate anised around the five basic emotions of fear, sadness, anger, disgust,
and happiness.
Cognition and Emotion: From Order to Disorder provides both an advanced
textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in addition to a novel approach
with a range of implications for clinical practice for work with the emotional disorders.
