Professor Ekman is attempting several things with one book: an introduction to the evolutionary basis for emotions and emotional expression; a definition for “emotion”; identification of the indivisible, fundemental emotions and a primer in how to read the emotions of others. Somehow, despite this book's short length (especially given that it is liberally peppered with photographs), he achieves all of these things. Emotions Revealed is fascinating and useful.
