Affective science (the study of emotions, moods, affect-based pathology
and other emotion-related phenomena) has expanded dramatically in recent
years. Its impact has been felt throughout psychology, biology,
neurology, neuroscience, and psychiatry. This growth has been
accompanied by scientific specialization that has had both benefits and
costs. Among the benefits are increasingly mature theories and a
veritable explosion of methodological advances and empirically-derived
knowledge concerning aspects of affect ranging from molecular to molar
levels. Among the costs are increasingly narrow training and growing
isolation among areas of specialization, resulting in affective
scientists who may not have familiarity and facility with traditions
other than their own
