The four distinguished editors have direct deep knowledge of the substantial variations in how psychology developed, is conceived, situated, and practiced around the world and have structured the contributions of international authors to capture these features as well as their commonalities. Readers will benefit from learning how varied are the organizations and practices of psychology. This important seminal work belongs on every psychologist's desk."
