Summary
In his book, Norman Denzin presents a systematic, in-depth analysis of emotion that combines new theoretical advances with practical applications. Based on an intensive, critical examination of classical and modern theoretical research - and on revealing personal interviews in which ordinary people express their emotional lives - he builds a new framework for understanding ordinary emotions and emotional disturbances.
