This book is an interdisciplinary exploration of how social connections are expressed at the neurological, developmental, dyadic, and group levels.

Provides a broad-based and multidisciplinary analysis of aggression and violence, their negative consequences, and promising interventions.

This book is a comprehensive examination of the influences of genes, personality, past social experiences, social and cultural identities, and contextual factors on human prosocial behavior.
