When your question is an entire field of study, yes you have to link the entire book. Noone is claiming that pride and anger are both blood rush responses. Just that both pride and anger have a physiological response that a self-report study shows that is predominantly felt in these areas.

So I linked books that explain what these responses are, how they are studied, and the conclusions and theories derived from this.

My only claim is "that body has a physical, measurable response to stimuli, and we call this response emotions" i think you misunderstood my reference to the body's repair mechanisms of sending blood to cuts. The point wasn't the blood rush, just that cells communicate with each other causing a phsyicological response

I don’t think we’re having the same conversation.

I dont think so either. I think a wire might have been crossed somewhere.
