I Felt Mesmerized

Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2010

Verified Purchase

This reader was charmed, excited and inspired by this book. "We Feel Fine" operates on several levels. Physically, it has the heft and graphic quality of a medium sized, high-end coffee table book. Its content delights with the immediate impact of the really cool photos of people and things. The excellence of the pictures surprised me given that they are pulled from the blogs together with the text which expresses the "feeling" of the title.
This sixty-something guy was particularly impressed with the insight into the minds of those who tend to be a bit younger than I. It has certainly proved to be a point of contact for provocative discussions with my children who are of the generation that provides most of the substance of the "we" who "feel fine". In that sense it is revelatory and hopeful that "the kids are alright". You see this both through the unique individuals and the information that is extrapolated from so many of us. Finally, it may well draw you into the website of the same name which minute to minute provides data for what may well be a sequel in the making of this "Almanac of Human Emotion".

A beautiful book about humanity..

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2013

Verified Purchase

Not only is We Feel Fine full of the common human experience but it's tangible because of the data showing how shared those individual feelings are, by sex, age range, country, and all kinds of other data. It's data made touchable, human and very beautiful and it's life in a nutshell. Everyone should have a copy of this.

Something for a robot to understand human emotion

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2013

Verified Purchase

As a high empathetic and pragmatic individual, I had higher expectations for this book. It's like a quantitative approach, using internet crowd sourcing to quantify emotions. I think the book kind of hides behind the colorful infographics too.

It's an interesting approach to emotions. Kind of like a mathematician or accountant trying to find patterns and clues about emotions. How emotions change over the years. How emotions vary based on metropolitan cities.

It's a great coffee table book. But not something that will help you with your job performance, or something applicable in your real life. Being more pragmatic I like psychology books to help understand people, motivations, etc and I can't say I learned something I can apply in real life from this book. But it's an amusing way to pass the time.

Would buy again

This review is short and simple. This book is not worth buying in my opinion. We Feel Fine has a website online, which is amazingly cool, and has all the information the book has and is constantly growing. On another note the book is beautiful and has great pictures. This book is for people who have extra money to spend and /or love the feeling of a beautiful book. which does not fit my description. That is why Im giving it 3 Stars.
