The Cambridge Handbook of Anxiety and Related Disorders by Bunmi O. Olatunji (Editor)This Handbook surveys existing descriptive and experimental approaches to the study of anxiety and related disorders, emphasizing the provision of empirically-guided suggestions for treatment. Based upon the findings from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), the chapters collected here highlight contemporary approaches to the classification, presentation, etiology, assessment, and treatment of anxiety and related disorders. The collection also considers a biologically-informed framework for the understanding of mental disorders proposed by the National Institute of Mental Health's Research Domain Criteria (RDoC). The RDoC has begun to create a new kind of taxonomy for mental disorders by bringing the power of modern research approaches in genetics, neuroscience, and behavioral science to the problem of mental illness. The framework is a key focus for this book as an authoritative reference for researchers and clinicians.

The Oxford Encyclopedia of Social Psychology by Michael A. Hogg (Editor-In-Chief)Unsurprisingly, people are consumed with interest in people - themselves, other people, how we interact as individuals in close relationships or as members of groups, and how groups interact with other groups. Attraction, love, language, communication, influence, persuasion, leadership, conformity, self and identity, culture, aggression, prejudice, and discrimination are all part of the human condition and of our everyday lives. It is therefore not unexpected that people might be preoccupied to understand the psychology underlying these phenomena, and this is precisely what social psychology offers - more than a century of systematic scientific research on, and associated theorizing of, the breadth and diversity of social behavior.The Oxford Encyclopedia of Social Psychology synthesizes what we know about human social behavior and explores avenues for future research. Across 79 scholarly and exhaustively referenced chapters, all written in an accessible style, nearly every topic that social psychologists study is comprehensively covered. Each chapter, which is self-contained but carefully cross-referenced, is written by a distinguished social psychologist and internationally prominent expert on the topic.

The Oxford Encyclopedia of the History of Modern Psychology by Wade E. Pickren (Editor-In-Chief)The history of psychology as a scholarly field has grown and diversified since the landmark volumes of E. G. Boring's A History of Experimental Psychology (1929, 1950). It is now a site of scholarly inquiry that attracts practitioners from a range of disciplines. Psychological concepts and practices hold interest for people from all walks of life and from around the globe. The Oxford Encyclopedia of the History of Modern Psychology reflects the range of such interest. The essays explore topics from everyday subjective experiences to deep connections among esoteric laboratory sciences and Enlightenment philosophies. Authors seek to answer difficult questions about how psychology developed, not only in the Western world, but across the globe. Human history has many examples of how people have used knowledge about themselves, others, and their world to try and change or improve their lives. How did these experiences help make possible a science and profession of psychology? In turn, how has scientific and professional psychology shaped or influenced the psychology of everyday life? The reader will find key insights into the profound differences that have marked the growth of Western modernity-race, gender, sexuality among them-and what they reveal about selfhood, identity, and possibilities for human freedom and oppression. In our own time, we see the psychological, economic, and political legacy of past practices and the profound inequities that we now must address. These histories will help readers find or create counter-histories that help us move toward a more equitable world.
