It gives a detailed, balanced and comprehensive scientific account of these related phenomena and explains how science interacts with historical and social factors. It also reveals how the latest insights into the workings of the brain and its chemistry - together with other approaches - can be used to generate more positive solutions to counteract the destructive shades of our strongest emotions.
