HTML:<b>A National Bestseller!<br /> "Read this book to connect with your highest self.” —Susan Cain, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Bittersweet</i> and <i>Quiet<br /></i>“We need more awe in our lives, and Dacher Keltner has written the definitive book on where to find it.” —Adam Grant, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Think Again</i><i><br /></i><br /> “<i>Awe</i> is awesome in both senses: a superb analysis of an emotion that is strongly felt but poorly understood, with a showcase of examples that remind us of what is worthy of our awe.” —Steven Pinker, Johnstone Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, and author of <i>How the Mind Works</i> and <i>Rationality</i><br /> From a foremost expert on the science of emotions, a groundbreaking and essential exploration into the history, science, and greater understanding of awe</b><br /> Awe is mysterious. How do we begin to quantify the goose bumps we feel when we see the Grand Canyon, or our utter amazement when we watch a child walk for the first time? Until recently, there was no science of awe, that feeling we experience when we encounter vast mysteries that transcend our understanding of the world. Revolutionary thinking, though, has shown how humans have survived over the course of evolution thanks to our capacities to cooperate, form communities, and create culture—all of which are spurred by awe.<br /> In <i>Awe</i>, Dacher Keltner presents a sweeping investigation and deeply personal inquiry into this elusive feeling. Revealing new research alongside an examination of awe across history, culture, and within his own life, Keltner shows us how cultivating awe in our everyday lives leads us to appreciate what is most humane in our human nature. At turns radical and profound, brimming with enlightening and practical insights, <i>Awe</i> is our field guide for how to place this emotion as a vital force within our lives.
