Full title :The brain and emotion / Edmund T. Rolls.

Summary

"The Brain and Emotion provides a modern neuroscience-based approach to information processing in the brain, and deals especially with the information processing involved in emotion, motivation, and reward. It uncovers many fundamental principles about how the brain works and about brain design through evolution by natural selection." "It will be a key text for researchers, graduate students and advanced undergraduates in the fields of neuroscience, psychology, medicine, biology, cognitive science, and artificial intelligence. It will also be of interest to all those concerned with and fascinated by the wider issues of what emotions are, why we have emotions and pleasure, and why emotions may not always appear to be adaptive in humans."--Jaquette.
