The book of emotions

How are emotions linked to the love of appearing? How are secrets exposed and personal experiences revealed publicly in the name of honesty and sincerity when in reality it is a desire to attract attention and fame? How are feelings commodified and exploited in sales processes? A book about emotions, why? Because they receive great attention in all fields, and are often celebrated, unconditionally, after being a source of suspicion in the past due to the risks and damages they produce. In this book, there is a valuable journey that briefly and deeply explores the history of emotions from Plato to the present time. A journey in which the Arab reader gets to know the Italian philosopher and academic Umberto Galimberti, who lays the theoretical foundations for emotions and their interpretive theories, explains how to refine them and their social value and emotional participation, and answers the question: Are emotions irrational?
