Reading

• Griffin, Joe, and Ivan Tyrrell, Human Givens: The New Approach to Emotional Health and Clear Thinking, 2nd Revised & enlarged edition (Chalvington: HG Publishing, 2013)
  Joe and Ivan’s book was way ahead of its time when first published in 2003.  However, it remains an idiosyncratic book with some distinctly odd sections.  If any of it doesn’t really sit with you, just read on…!

• Barrett, Lisa Feldman, How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain (Pan Macmillan, 2017)
  A knotty read, but well worth it if you are interested in an updated take on Joe and Ivan’s ideas.
