Handbook of Jealousy cover

Through a compilation of original articles, the Handbook of Jealousy offers an integrated portrait of the emerging areas of research into the nature of jealousy and a forum for discussing the implications of the findings for theories of emotional and socio-cognitive development.

  • Presents the most recent findings and theories on jealousy across a range of contexts and age-stages of development
  • Includes 23 original articles with empirical findings and detailed commentaries by leading experts in the field
  • Serves as a valuable resource for professionals in the fields of clinical psychology, psychiatry, and social work, as well as scholars in the fields of psychology, family studies, sociology, and anthropology

"The evaluative sections would be of particular interest to indidviduals looking for new areas to explore within the field, and with the book as a whole being clearly written it would be accessible to any reader with a psychological or related background." (Social Psychological Review, 2011)

"Given its comprehensiveness and attention to both basic and applied issues, this is a volume that anyone wishing to understand the development of jealousy simply must consult. Highly recommended. All readers." (Choice, 1 October 2011)
