This a dense, well researched and thought-provoking book written in a pacy approachable and inquisitive way. The author makes a solidly built case that the universal components of human experience are not emotions, but changes on a continuum of arousal on the one hand, and pleasantness and unpleasantness on the other. Ultimately we are all creating our world from moment to moment.

A beautiful hardcover book set out as an illustrated guide to feelings and relationships. This tender hearted and inclusive book opens the conversation in friendships and romantic relationships by inviting readers in to reflect and consider in this is a sweet, comforting and engaging book.
