Reviews for Mixed Emotions
"This is a big, bold book on an important subject. Andrew A. G. Ross makes sweeping claims about emotion as a social process and illustrates his argument through three fascinating case studies. The big picture he presents is compelling, and it raises questions about how we currently understand global politics." (Janice Gross Stein, University of Toronto)"
