They're a pain, aren't they? If only we were all a little less emotional and a lot more rational, we wouldn't get ourselves into half the scrapes we do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut is that a fair synopsis? Are emotions really some form of cognitive appendix that we'd be better off without? Or do they serve a deeper purpose? For them to take up so much of our brain's precious resources, emotions must have evolved for a reason. What is that reason?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd how do they work in the brain? Are they innate, wired in from the word go, allowing a baby to cry with distress mere seconds after exiting the womb? Or are they learned, over time and through our experiences of dealing with others?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn The Emotional Brain, Dean Burnett investigates all these questions - and many more besides. Combining in-depth research with expert analysis, the end result is a fascinating and endlessly entertaining account of the science underlying our emotional lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dean BurnettÊ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49013676343449,"sku":"9781783351732","price":795.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/5642\/6905\/files\/71j658AAEKL._SY342_e6efc6a7-845a-477d-ad13-8b17d9b6ec09.jpg?v=1789228187","url":"https:\/\/booksworldstore.com\/products\/emotional-ignorance-lost-and-found-in-the-science-of-emotion","provider":"Books World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
