Description
"This volume illustrates some of the most intriguing developments in the field of social psychology in the last decades. Simultaneously, it documents the mutually stimulating interplay of basic and applied research. This collection in honour of Wolfgang Stroebe does more than taking stock. It provides a survey of the scope of social psychology." - Gerold Mikula, Professor of Social Psychology, University of Graz, Austria
"A uniquely wonderful book and really fun to read. Each chapter incisively focuses on a particular problem within the major areas of social psychology -- attitudes; social cognition and emotion; group and intergroup behavior; and health psychology – providing a high level, marvelously integrative analysis. This is no surprise, however, as the author list reads like a "who’s really who" in the field." - Norman Miller, Silberberg Professor of Psychology, University of Southern California
"A splendid demonstration of the breadth and significance of contemporary research in social psychology, whether basic in tone or applied to meaningful social issues. On top of offering a unique opportunity to be informed about the very best work in our field, this book celebrates the contribution of an exemplary scholar. A real source of inspiration!" - Vincent Yzerbyt, Professor of Psychology, Catholic University of Louvain at Louvain-la-Neuve

"... written in a tight-reasoned style that may range from the interesting to exciting... there are many health-related professionals outside of social psychology, including clinical, community, and prevention psychologists and psychotherapists, who would profit by reading selected chapters dedicated to those areas, including, of course, health and bereavement." - Luciano L'Abate, PsycCRITIQUES
