The Strange Order of Things by Antonio Damasio review – why feelings are the unstoppable force d.gu.com/QDgx4k

Claiming reason as the solution to social ills misses the point that often facts and arguments only improve conditions when they persuade and prompt action. Persuasion requires emotions and feelings as the critical negotiators.

Look out for Antonio Damasio's new book "The Strange Order of Things: Life, Feeling, and the Making of Cultures," which will be available next week. In the meantime, read @AdrianWoolfson's review in @nature | @USCBCI @damasiousc ow.ly/QTJV30i9mJh
