Reviews

All articles demonstrate the importance of the body as a field for the operations of mental life. By analysing the practices that make inner experience visible, the book makes a novel contribution to the study of emotions in the Indonesian context and uses the Pacific ethnopsychologies debate effectively in theorising its points.
