Emotions and the Dual Brain (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1989)

This book attempts to clarify a relatively new problem in the area of brain-behavior relationships, namely the link between emotions and hemispheric specialization. The contributions by leading specialists integrate theoretical models of emotions in normal subjects with results of experimental investigations conducted in patients with unilateral brain lesions. The communicative aspects of emotions and the inner experience of emotions as well as the concomitant autonomous changes are separately investigated and discussed.
