Have you ever felt guilt or fear or maybe even attraction and worried that it was written all over your face? For the psychologist Paul Ekman - it is. Ekman's career has been dedicated to studying how emotions are expressed - down to the microexpressions of a simple muscle twitch. Thursday on RadioWest, Paul Ekman joins Doug to talk about his latest book - co-authored with the Dalai Lama - on the nature and quality of our emotional lives.
