Here's a book on the topic: https://smile.amazon.com/How-Emotions-Made-Lisa-Barrett/dp/1328915433/ https://smile.amazon.com/How-Emotions-Made-Lisa-Barrett/dp/1.... It's one of the better books I've found on cognition and emotional intelligence. The author's interview with Ezra Klein is also very good and gives an overview of the book if you're hesitant about buying it: https://lisafeldmanbarrett.com/podcasts/ https://lisafeldmanbarrett.com/podcasts/. The pieces of the puzzle fell into place after I read the book because she gives a computational perspective on emotions and how they're related to regulating homeostasis.
