Clear, concise, and inspiring. Barclay's book is an excellent introduction to the history of emotions and its various concepts. I feel inspired, because I realise that my work has touched upon —at several times— the history of emotions. I have also come to realise it would be possible to incorporate these perspectives into my work and recast my findings, yielding new and interesting perspectives.
