"This is a rare book, Every so often an edited work comes along which truly fills a niche--The Hearts Eye does just that. The editors, both social psychologists, pull together an ensemble of distinguished academicians to address two broad questions: What role do emotions play in various cognitive processes? And who really cares if they do?... This work is stimulating and will be of benefit to any student (advanced undergraduates will be able to grasp most of the material) oracademicians who are interested in exploring this vital link between affect and cognition."
--JOURNAL OF PSYCHOLOGY AND CHRISTIANITY
"Of interest to social and clinical as well as cognitive psychologists...A series of authoritative overviews... All the chapters are of a uniformly high quality and the editors have performed a masterful task of organising and integrating the material. The integration is facilitated by an introductory chapter which defines terms and provides an overview of the contents. Overall then, this is an excellent book and a valuable addition to the literature... I am delighted to be able to have it on my bookshelf."
--R.J. EDELMANN, University of Surrey, U.K., in PERCEPTION
"This volume makes an important contribution by focusing on this neglected aspect of affect: its fundamental mediating role in perception and attention. This is undoubtedly a most timely and valuable book that will add to our knowledge about emotional influences on perception and attention."
--Joseph P. Forgas in CONTEMPORARY PSYCHOLOGY
