Brookline Booksmith welcomes psychologist and neuroscientist LISA FELDMAN BARRETT, author of How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain. In her new book BARRETT sheds light on the science of emotion – its relationship to rational thought, individuals’ control over their urges, and the broader implications emotionality has for life.
This event is free and open to the public.
Certain books were “banned in Boston” at least as far back as 1651, when one William Pynchon wrote a book criticizing Puritanism.
