Features: What would happiness be like without emotions? When we seek happiness, aren't we first looking for some kind of emotion? Conversely, when we are unhappy, isn't it because of unpleasant feelings that we are in pain or depression? How many times have our mistakes been made in the heat of the moment! And how many times have we avoided unnecessary mistakes by noticing our own and others' emotions? Can we control our envy? 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 harming our own? For every important emotion in us—joy, anger, sadness, jealousy, shame, love—the book introduces new content and provides advice, aiming to help us better understand emotions, better express emotions, and learn to transform our emotions into strength.
