Description
This comprehensive handbook provides a broad, balanced examination of what is currently known about emotion in human behavior. Leading experts first describe basic concepts and research models and explore the biology and neurophysiology of emotion. The following three sections address developmental pathways, issues related to social processes and personality, and the complex interface of affect and cognition. Next, innovative research on emotions and health is presented in a section that represents one of the field's most dynamic and fruitful areas of inquiry. Concluding chapters comprise in-depth reviews of a selection of widely studied emotions: fear, anger, sadness, shame, disgust, love, and happiness, among others.
Reviews / Votes
Emotion is a complex area, and one to which readers bring widely varying interests, biases, and levels of sophistication. This volume does very well in covering the basic and applied topics that are relevant to a broad audience. Presented by a distinguished group of experts who have much of import to say, the second edition of the Handbook is valuable as both a professional resource and a graduate-level text. - Richard S. Lazarus, University of California, BerkeleyThis is truly a handbook - in the classic sense of a standard reference source - and it is the only book in the field that is worthy of the designation. - Joseph J. Campos, University of California, Berkeley
This comprehensive, scholarly Handbook will further propel interest in the role of emotion. The first edition was named a Choice magazine Outstanding Academic Book of 1995. It is likely that the present second edition will garner similar accolades. It has my vote! Highly recommended for researchers and clinicians. - Donald Meichenbaum, University of Waterloo, Canada
This book served as the core reference for a graduate seminar I taught on emotion theory and research. All of the students found the assigned readings to be highly readable and comprehensive. I can't think of a better resource on the current status of emotion research for both graduate students and advanced undergraduates. - Alfred W. Kaszniak, University of Arizona
An excellent text for graduate-level courses on emotion and motivation....In addition, graduate students and faculty alike can use the Handbook as a springboard for developing their research ideas on various emotion-relevant topics. - Julie Hakim-Larson, University of Windsor, Canada This is truly a handbook - in the classic sense of a standard reference source - and it is the only book in the field that is worthy of the designation. - Joseph J. Campos, University of California, Berkeley, USA
