The affective neuroeconomics of social brains: One man's cruelty is another's suffering
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 29 (3):234-235 (2006)
Abstract
Cruelty does not emerge from a single emotional system of the brain. Its many cognitive aspects are intermeshed inextricably with the nature of negative affects ranging from fear to suffering. The rewards of cruelty may be counteracted by a variety of neurochemical factors as well as novel social policies.Other Versions
