Reviews / Votes
This volume stands out in three different ways. First it is a fine collection of papers on issues that really matter in current in occupational health and safety. Second, its excellent contributions are either of high scholarly interest or of practical relevance, or both. And, last but not least, it brings together leading authors from all around the world. In other words, Contemporary Occupational Health Psychology is up-to-date, relevant, and international. As such academic scholars, students and practitioners will benefit from its rich content. --Wilmar B. Schaufeli, Utrecht University, The Netherlands This volume presents an excellent collection of inspiring and useful contributions to the field of occupational health psychology. Anyone concerned about the health and safety of employed people in today's stressful working life should read this book. --Johannes Siegrist, Ph.D., Senior Professor, University of Duesseldorf, Germany Combining macro- and micro- approaches, this ensemble of distinguished authors make an unmistakeable and significant contribution to the scope of OHP internationally. --Professor Maureen Dollard, University of South Australia, AustraliaMore details
