Features: What would a happiness without emotions be like? When we seek happiness, aren't we supposed to first look for some kind of emotion? On the other hand, when we are unhappy, isn't it because of unpleasantness that we are in a state of pain or frustration? How many times have our mistakes been made in a fit of anger! And how many times have we avoided unnecessary mistakes by noticing our own and others' emotions? Can we control our jealousy? What is the role of desire in love, and why are we sometimes unfaithful? Does happiness depend on each of us or on our surroundings? How can we become the masters of our emotions? How can we understand others' emotions without damaging our own? For every important emotion in us—happiness, anger, sadness, jealousy, shame, love—the book introduces new content and provides suggestions, aiming to help us better understand emotions, better express emotions, and learn to transform our emotions into strength.
