Our understanding of the Emotional System today is still in the Dark Ages. (46) This has its analogy to the time when people’ s understanding of our Solar System was based upon the belief that the Sun revolved around the Earth, as it certainly appeared that way—however, just the reverse was true. The problem was, as long as we believed the Sun went around the Earth, we were limited as to how far we could go in the Solar System.
We find the same condition existing today in regard to the "Emotional System. Society believes that our emotional feelings are a result of our experiences in our environment.

It cut its benchmark (基准) rate by a percentage point, to 2% , following a stunning one-and-a-haft-point reduction a month earlier. On the same day Sweden’s central bank slashed its rate, from 3.75% to 2%, and said big cuts were needed because monetary policy was less effective than usual. But the European Central Bank (ECB) was stuck somewhere between caution and boldness. Less than an hour after the Bank of England’s decision, the ECB reduced its main rate by three-quarters of a percentage point, to 2.5%. That was the biggest cut in its ten-year history. It may look daring, but in the circumstances seems inadequate.
