The Origin and Nature of the Emotions
In response to numerous requests I have brought together into this volume eight papers which may serve as a supplement to the volumes previously published and as a preface to monographs now in preparation. In the first of these addresses, the Ether Day Address, delivered at the Massachusetts General Hospital in October, 1910, I first enunciated the Kinetic Theory of Shock, the key to which was found in laboratory researches and in a study of Darwin's "Expression of the Emotions in Man and in Animals," whereby the phylogenetic origin of the emotions was made manifest and the pathologic identity of surgical and emotional shock was established.

Why one animal behaves like a high-powered motor, set in high gear, exhausting itself by a high expenditure of energy, and another behaves like a low-powered motor, set in low gear, and therefore capable of carrying on indefinitely at a moderate expenditure of energy, has long been an enigma. This became our problem ..."--Amaon.co.uk product desc. (new ed.).
