<p>"This volume will be a major synthesis of the new research and thinking on teams and thus update what is known in this important area. This volume will be an update of the Organizational Frontiers 1995 volume by Guzzo and Salas. The book has a number of strengths. One is the multidisciplinary theme of the proposed book. There are many theories, principles and tools that have emerged so a science of team effectiveness is now emerging. The book reflects this diversity and will allow the authors and editors to bring the theory and research from other disciplines to the attention of IO psychologists"</p><p>Robert Pritchard</p><p>University of Central Florida</p>
