The book of qualities

J. Ruth Gendler First published 1984

About this book

One of the most amazing books ever. A series of abstractions and concretisations of human good and bad qualities: anger, fear, joy, utilising imagery and colour to personify these qualities. Gendler makes each quality/emotion into a distinct human entity in order to expand and detail their essence. Words fail me. I have searched for two decades to find this book again!
