Book Reviews of Emotions Revealed: Recognizing Faces and Feelings to Improve Communication and Emotional Life
Book Review: A clarifying overview
Summary: 4 Stars
The book is not a real breakthrough, never the less it provides a clear understanding and organization to something that sometimes is apparent but without a scientific approach that explains it. It can really change the way we look at people after reading it.

Summary of Emotions Revealed: Recognizing Faces and Feelings to Improve Communication and Emotional Life
?Beautifully interweaves research with anecdotes, recommendations, and the behind-the-scenes flubs, accidental discoveries and debates . . . that are the essence of scientific inquiry.? ?Scientific AmericanA renowned expert in nonverbal communication, Paul Ekman led a revolution in our scientific understanding of emotions. In Emotions Revealed, he assembles his research and theories to provide a comprehensive look at the evolutionary roots of human emotions, including anger, sadness, fear, disgust, and happiness.
Drawing on decades of fieldwork, Ekman shows that emotions are deeply embedded in the human species. In the process, he answers such questions as: What triggers emotions and can we stop them? How does our body signal to others whether we are slightly sad or anguished, peeved or enraged? Can we learn to distinguish between a polite smile and the genuine thing? Can we ever truly control our emotions? Unique exercises and photographs help readers identify emotions in themselves and others.
Emotions Revealed is a practical, mind-opening, and potentially life-changing exploration of science and self.
