"Whereas most scholars of emotion do not call the notion of emotion itself into question,
this review engages in a critical examination of its scientific legitimacy. Demystifying
Emotions provides a comprehensive typology of emotions by comparing major theories
in psychology (evolutionary, network, appraisal, goal-directed, psychological constructionist,
and social) and philosophy (feeling, judgmental, quasi-judgmental, perceptual, embodied,
and motivational) in a systematic manner with the help of tools from philosophy of
science, allowing scholars in both fields to understand the commonalities and differences
between these theories. Agnes Moors also proposes her own novel, skeptical theory
of emotions, called the goal-directed theory, based on the central idea that all kinds
of behaviors and feelings are grounded in goal-striving. This book will appeal to
readers in psychology, philosophy, and related disciplines who want to gain a deeper
understanding of the controversies at play in the emotion domain"
