How to Do Things with Emotions - by Owen Flanagan

How To Do Things With Emotions by Owen Flanagan is a groundbreaking book that challenges traditional views on anger and shame.

By examining cross-cultural resources, Flanagan demonstrates how certain types of anger are destructive while a 'mature' sense of shame can be used as a socializing emotion to protect good values without being attached to the self.

This book provides an expansive look at how culture shapes our emotions and offers practical insights for individuals and society to benefit from less anger and more shame.

With a passionate case for tuning down anger and tuning up shame, Flanagan's work celebrates the plasticity of our emotional responses and our freedom to recalibrate them in pursuit of more fulfilling lives.
