Summary note
Annotation Will interest moral and political psychologists, philosophers, and social scientists concerned with inner emotional conflicts driving ethical thinking beyond mere emotivism, toward moral realism. It combines 'basic emotion' theories (e.g. Panksepp) with hermeneutic depth - psychology of the conflict between a basic truth - seeking exploratory drive and equally powerful confabulatory motivations.
