About this ebook

Most of us live our lives 'highly educated' but 'emotionally illiterate'! The fact is that while a burger breaks our resolve, an insult overpowers our self-control or a relationship-trouble costs us our careers, we simply remind ourselves that we are not the thinking-beings we pose to be. Inside us lie the real rulers of our mental terrain – emotions. And any pursuit of understanding humans is dangerously incomplete without developing insights into how our emotions work. "Understanding Emotions logically – A layman's guide to the foundations of 'Social Intelligence'' attempts to answer all major questions related to emotions in scientific yet simplified manner, and helps you see emotions more logically.
