′These volumes would be of interest to professionals in the field, as each chapter provides a scholarly overview of each theory. Graduate students and those just beginning their professional careers should also find the personal narratives of interest. The opportunity to pull back the curtain and peek into the thought process of some of social psychology′s most prominent theorists as they struggled with their creations is not only a valuable lesson but a treat as well. I look forward to adding these volumes to my personal collection′ -<br /><b>Mark A. Stambush<br />American Psychological Association</b>
Providing a comprehensive exploration of the major developments of social psychological theories that have taken place over the past half century, this innovative two-volume handbook is a state of the art overview of the primary theories and models that have been developed in this vast and fascinating field.
Authored by leading international experts, each chapter represents a personal and historical narrative of the theory′s development including the inspirations, critical junctures, and problem-solving efforts that effected theoretical choices and determined the theory′s impact and its evolution. Unique to this handbook, these narratives provide a rich background for understanding how theories are created, nurtured, and shaped over time, and examining their unique contribution to the field as a whole. To examine its societal impact, each theory is evaluated in terms of its applicability to better understanding and solving critical social issues and problems.
