How Do You Feel?

More about the book

Craig believes we do not have a genuine understanding of what a "feeling" is or how we experience a feeling. Emotional feelings, though, are even less tangible and more ephemeral. Bodily awareness has been called interoceptive awareness by investigators interested in the effects of cardiorespiratory or visceral sensory activity on human mood, emotion, and performance. Craig's goal here is to provide a clear and accessible explanation of the ideas that emerged from his work on the lamina I projection map that he has been developing for the last twenty-five years. -- adapted from Introduction [pages 1-15]
