COMMUNICATING EMOTION
Social, Moral, and Cultural Processes
Sally Planalp
Cambridge University Press, 1999
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Readers of this book will understand current theories and research findings on how emotion is communicated.
This book presents seven dichotomies in scientific and folk theories of emotion which stimulate exploration of emotions and help to enable their functions and complexity to be understood. Research on people's recognition of others' emotion is drawn upon, as well as a wide interdisciplinary selection of up-to-date literature from communication, psychology, sociology, management, philosophy, and anthropology, to show how emotion serves as a basis for social connections, as a locus of negotiation between individuals and society, and as a glue that holds people together in cultures.
Sally Planalp, Ph.D., is a professor in the Department of Communication Studies at the University of Montana.
