Gut Reactions: A Perceptual Theory of Emotion by Jesse J. Prinz (English) Paperb

Description: Gut Reactions by Jesse J. Prinz Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Gut reactions is an interdisciplinary defense of the claim that emotions are perceptions of changes in the body. The basic idea behind embodied appraisals is captured in the familiar notion of a "gut reaction". Drawing a parallel between emotion consciousness and visual consciousness, this title shows that emotion is a form of perception. Publisher Description Gut Reactions is an interdisciplinary defense of the claim that emotions are perceptions in a double sense. First of all, they are perceptions of changes in the body, but, through the body, they also allow us to literally perceive danger, loss, and other matters of concern. This proposal, which Prinz calls the embodied appraisal theory, reconciles the long standing debate between those who say emotions are cognitive and those who say they arenoncognitive. The basic idea behind embodied appraisals is captured in the familiar notion of a "gut reaction," which has been overlooked by much emotion research. Prinz also addresses emotional valence, emotionalconsciousness, and the debate between evolutionary psychologists and social constructionists. Author Biography Jesse Prinz is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He is the author of Furnishing the Mind, in which he defends the view that all concepts have their basis in perception, and two forthcoming titles.
