The School of Life: An Emotional Education

A great introduction to the world of emotions. I am someone who leans far and heavily into a pure rational interpretation of the world, often neglecting or discounting my own and by extension the emotions of others. It's incredibly hard for me to understand why people do certain things, as well as why I feel the way that I do. This book is seeing the world through a different lens, finding out that there is a different, equally important perspective that I've been dismissing. It doesn't help too much in the way of actionable points, but definitely can serve as a lucid and compelling eye-opener for the completely uninitiated.
