Synopsis
William Lyons presents a survey of psychological and physiological theories on emotions. Once the background is established, Lyons analyses his own theory, which throws light on the motivating role of emotions in our lives, our attitudes towards our emotions and our responsibility for them., In this study William Lyons presents a sustained and coherent theory of the emotions, and one which draws extensively on the work of psychologists and physiologists in the area. Dr Lyons starts by giving a thorough and critical survey of other principal theories, before setting out his own 'causal-evaluative' account. In addition to giving an analysis of the nature of emotion - in which, Dr Lyon argues, evaluative attitudes play a crucial part - his theory throws light on the motivating role of emotions in our lives, our attitudes towards our emotions and our responsibility for them.
