Cambridge University Press Emotions An Essay in Aid of Moral Psychology
Book SynopsisLife, on a day to day basis, is a sequence of emotional states: hope, disappointment, irritation, anger, affection, envy, pride, embarrassment, joy, sadness and many more. We know intuitively that these states express deep things about our character and our view of the world. But what are emotions and why are they so important to us? In one of the most extensive investigations of the emotions ever published, Robert Roberts develops a novel conception of what emotions are and then applies it to a large range of types of emotion and related phenomena. In so doing he lays the foundations for a deeper understanding of our evaluative judgments, our actions, our personal relationships and our fundamental well-being. Aimed principally at philosophers and psychologists, this book will certainly be accessible to readers in other disciplines such as religion and anthropology.Trade Review'It is clearly and engagingly written, uses vivid examples throughout, and covers an impressively wide range of emotions. Roberts discusses the philosophical and neurological literature on emotion, as well as many literary case studies. He makes a strong case for the importance of emotions to ethics. In fact, anyone who believes otherwise will have a hard time responding to Roberts because of the enormous number of examples and arguments presented in this book.' Linda Zagzebski, University of Oklahoma'… a strong and sustained piece of work that presents a truly original and thought-provoking analysis of emotions …' Nick Haslam, University of Melbourne'The clarity, subtlety, breadth, and depth of Roberts's book are richly rewarding and make it essential reading. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a milestone in the development of the philosophical analysis of emotions.' Journal of Moral PhilosophyTable of Contents1. Studying emotions; 2. The nature of emotions; 3. The variety of emotions; 4. The play of emotional feelings.

Cambridge University Press Shame Theory Therapy Theology
Book SynopsisIn this book, first published in 2000, Stephen Pattison considers the nature of shame as it is discussed in the diverse discourses of literature, psychology, psychoanalysis, philosophy, history and sociology and concludes that 'shame' is not a single unitary phenomenon, but rather a set of separable but related understandings in different discourses. Situating chronic shame primarily within the metaphorical ecology of defilement, pollution and toxic unwantedness, Pattison goes on to examine the causes and effects of shame. He then considers the way in which Christianity has responded to and used shame. Psychologists, philosophers, theologians and therapists will find this a fascinating source of insight, and it will be of particular use to pastoral workers and those concerned with religion and mental health.Trade Review'Thoughtful observers of the human condition have largely shifted from an earlier concern with behavior toward rapt concentration on the emotions that underlie or accompany it. The very concept of morality forces attention on shame and guilt as the internal enforcers of any moral code. Professor Pattison, whose career long interest in the doing of religious work has made any of his books worth serious attention, here presents a compelling argument that theology must be practical in order to accomplish its goals. In this stunning text, he heralds a shift from a Christian doctrine based on the shaming attribution of the worshiper as inherently defective toward one grounded in compassion, safety, and love. This is a must read for anyone who cares about the future of religious practise.' Donald L. Nathanson, M.D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, The Silvan S. Tomkins Institute, Philadelphia'There are a lot of books which address critically issues of contemporary Christianity and theology. This one, however, arises from the inside, does not hide the author's deep scars, produces detailed and accessible evidence, is extremely well-informed, and demonstrates the urgency of looking at the shame-generating potential and reality of Christianity. Pattison makes the topic accessible to a wider public: the interested, though not necessarily theologically educated, reader will gain a fascinating and clear overview of some of the fundamental questions Christianity is currently struggling with. One of the great merits of his brilliant study is the 'import', as it were, of a wide body of 'outside knowledge' into theological thinking. The book takes us deeper into our realities and helps us to face them.' Werner Ustorf, University of Birmingham'This is a must read for anyone who cares about the future of religious practise.' Donals L. Nathanson, M. D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, The Silvan S. Tomkins Institute, Philadelphia'The range of questions that this book stimulates is an indication of its quality and importance.' Theology'Pattison has written an important book whose content has been forged in the fire of his own experience. It should be required reading by pastors and others who have the well-being of the people in their congregations at heart.' Sue and Philip Clements-Jewery'This book offers a new and deeper insight into the experience of shame … the author has succeeded in producing a book on the subject of shame that is both scientific as well as profoundly moving.'

Cambridge University Press The Psychology of Facial Expression
Book SynopsisThis reference work provides broad and up-to-date coverage of the major perspectives - ethological, neurobehavioral, developmental, dynamic systems, componential - on facial expression. It summarizes, critiques current research and provides guidelines for future research.Trade Review'… opens new ways of looking at the biology and development of facial expression with a strong emphasis on the social function of expressive movements. In the process, much work is being done to loosen a strong association between expression and emotion. Such a step can only be helpful toward understanding what a realistic account of the relation between emotion and facial expression might be, and how best to analyze that most expressive of human characteristics - the face.' George Mandler, from the Foreword'… a unique and fascinating discussion … this book is not just a summary of past research … Rather it provides a place from which to begin future research.

Cambridge University Press Darwin God and the Meaning of Life How Evolutionary Theory Undermines Everything You Thought You Knew
Book SynopsisIf you accept evolutionary theory, can you also believe in God? Are human beings superior to other animals, or is this just a human prejudice? Does Darwin have implications for heated issues like euthanasia and animal rights? Does evolution tell us the purpose of life, or does it imply that life has no ultimate purpose? Does evolution tell us what is morally right and wrong, or does it imply that ultimately 'nothing' is right or wrong? In this fascinating and intriguing book, Steve Stewart-Williams addresses these and other fundamental philosophical questions raised by evolutionary theory and the exciting new field of evolutionary psychology. Drawing on biology, psychology and philosophy, he argues that Darwinian science supports a view of a godless universe devoid of ultimate purpose or moral structure, but that we can still live a good life and a happy life within the confines of this view.Trade Review'Steve Stewart-Williams explains how evolutionary thought challenges many deep-seated assumptions about God, morality, and human superiority and raises significant questions about such things as euthanasia, suicide, and the way we treat non-human animals. While it has become commonplace for many to equate Darwin's legacy with the stripping away of the moral and the good and to replace it with unpalatable 'Darwinist' alternatives that advocate amorality, nihilism, and a world where 'might makes right', Stewart-Williams carefully and entertainingly shows that, on the contrary, the world after Darwin remains meaningful, wondrous, and intrinsically moral.' Stephen Hill, Massey University'This is an important, accessible, and timely book for anyone wishing to understand the implications of evolutionary theory for standard views of human nature, morality and religion.'
