Description: Many researchers claim that emotions arise either from human biology or as products of culture. This book challenges this simplistic division between the body and culture by showing how human emotions are to a large extent "constructed'' from individuals' embodied experiences in different cultural settings. The view proposed here demonstrates how cultural aspects of emotions, metaphorical language about the emotions, and human physiology in emotion are all part of an intergrated system.
