A one-of-a-kind tour through the body that looks at how, why and where humans experience emotions, from award-winning science writer Tanya Lloyd Kyi.

A one-of-a-kind tour through the body that looks at how, why and where humans experience emotions, from award-winning science writer Tanya Lloyd Kyi. Why does nervousness make us feel like we have butterflies in our belly and embarrassment cause a deep blush to spread across our face? While we know our brains are directly connected to our emotions, scientists are now discovering more about how other parts of our bodies are involved in feeling our feelings. How does all the information flow back and forth through our bodies? And how does it turn into the things we call emotions? Here's a fascinating, toe-to-head tour through the human body that answers these questions and more. Award-winning author Tanya Lloyd Kyi offers a unique mix of science, history and cultural studies to empower readers by helping them understand their emotions and how to practice self-regulation. Kyi's signature funny, frank tone paired with amusing cartoon illustrations by Phil Nicholls make this an approachable book for adolescents who are becoming more aware of their bodies and their suddenly out-of-control feelings. Readers will learn the latest scientific theories about where our emotions "happen," how our brains guide us as we experience and process these emotions and even some traditional cultural beliefs about soothing those big feelings. An excellent resource for life science lessons on the human body and human organ systems, the book includes a glossary, index, sources and resources.
