DESCRIPTION
Decades of scientific research on neurophysiology have proven emotions  
are not simply a minor aspect of human activity, but rather a  
fundamental one.

The Handbook of Research on Synthetic Emotions and Sociable Robotics:  
New Applications in Affective Computing and Artificial Intelligence  
focuses on the integration of emotions into artificial environments  
such as computers and robotics. Written by an international  
collaboration of experts within the field, this Handbook of Research  
covers topics such as emotion simulation and emotion synthetic  
development.
****************************************
“The research in this field is not only important to develop better  
computer applications which are more able to communicate with humans  
or fulfill their tasks, but also argue that synthetic emotions can  
help neuroscience or cognitive psychology to test their models.”

- Jordi Vallverdú, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain
