ABOUT THE BOOK:-
Practising psychiatry, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis for over forty years and being an avid reader of books pertaining to the human mind convinced Salman Akhtar that most good books in this realm are difficult to read for laypersons. Matters are made worse by the fact that books that are readable succumb to oversimplification and glib advicegiving. As a result, the seeker of knowledge about the intricacies of emotional life finds little that is meaningful to read. It is this lack that The Book of Emotions is trying to address here. Written in a simple, easytounderstand style with everyday examples and anecdotes, the books explains the meaning and characteristics of some of our inherent emotions.::(ABOUT THE AUTHOR::)::Salman Akhtar, MD is an internationally recognized psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, writer, and poet.
