Emotion: The Science of Sentiment

  • Dylan Evans
Oxford University Press: 2001. 204 pp. £9.99, $15.95

This is a fun little book, no bigger than your palm, and with a bright pink cover, summarizing in a popular science format what we know about emotion. Dylan Evans is a researcher at the Darwin Centre at the London School of Economics, and his account is, predictably, about the evolution of human emotions. Highly accessible, this little gem deserves to sell well.
