Thomas S. Henricks 
Selves, Societies, and Emotions [EPUB ebook] 
Understanding the Pathways of Experience

Building on contributions from sociology, psychology, anthropology, philosophy, literature, and neuroscience, Henricks develops a more general account of how people discover and reproduce the "meanings" of their involvements with others. Among its many themes are treatments of selves as "projections of personhood, " of the ways in which self-expression has changed historically and is now experienced in our electronically mediated era, of emotions as "framing judgments, " and of ritual, play, communitas, and work as four distinctive "pathways of experience."
