I must say it is an honor to be the first person to review this book. I read of all of Mr. Hillman's books that are not out of print. Being a lay person I found this one very hard to read. I did not have this problem with Mr. Hillman's other works including "The Myth of Analysis."
The number of theories examined in this book is staggering to say the least. It is very hard to find a book as comprehensive about this subject as this book. Even encyclopedia Britannica refers to it.
Anybody interested in the subject of emotion should read this book.
