Zusatztext "You've got to hand it to that Sydney sunshine: not only does it attract some of the top minds in psychology to the Sydney Symposium each year (and there are stars aplenty in this year's group)! but judging from the chapters in this volume it seems to elevate everyone's game. Chapter after chapter offers an insightful analysis of how intrapsychic and interpersonal processes (and their interaction) give rise to the complex! nuanced! and diverse social behavior we see around us everyday. The full range of what social psychology has to offer is on display here-from evolutionary to cognitive to social-cultural perspectives! and from current takes on classic theories to entirely new approaches-and this book should stand for quite some time as a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the underpinnings of social life." - Professor Tom Gilovich!
