Meer over het boek

Exploring the intricate landscape of human emotions, Giovanni Frazzetto delves into their physiological, genetic, historical, artistic, and philosophical dimensions. He examines various feelings, including anger, guilt, and joy, supported by scientific research such as the influence of monoamine oxidase A on anger and the role of opioid receptors in music appreciation. The narrative also highlights unique artistic expressions, like Salvador Dali's giant caterpillar installation, which reflects on the concept of sedation.
