The Aesthetics of Emotion

Up the Down Staircase of the Mind-Body

Beschreibung

Gerald C. Cupchik builds a bridge between science and the humanities, arguing that relations between mind and body are analogous to those between subject matter and style in art. His unified emotional phase theory encompasses reactions to meaningful life events and actions, enabling people to realize goals and adapt to challenges.
