Looking at Our Emotions
ResumeNow he's out with a fascinating new book looking at our emotions: What's hard wired and what's not; how gender, age, religion, nationality and class all affect our interactions with each other; how we respond to risk, how we live our lives. It's a deep, illuminating picture of what goes on inside our heads.
This hour, On Point: Jerome Kagan and what our feelings are made of.
