The Routledge International Handbook of Social Neuroendocrinology
is an authoritative reference work providing a balanced overview of
current scholarship spanning the full breadth of the rapidly
developing field of social neuroendocrinology. Considering the
relationships between hormones, the brain, and social behavior,
this collection brings together groundbreaking research in the
field for the first time. Featuring 39 chapters written by leading
researchers, the handbook offers impressive breadth of coverage. It
begins with an overview of the history of social neuroendocrinology
before discussing its methodological foundations and challenges.
Other topics covered include state-of-the-art research on dominance
and aggression; social affiliation; reproduction and pair bonding
(e.g., sexual behavior, sexual orientation, romantic
relationships); pregnancy and parenting; stress and emotion;
cognition and decision making; social development; and mental and
physical health. The handbook adopts a lifespan approach to the
study of social neuroendocrinology throughout, covering the role
that hormones play during gestation, childhood, adolescence, and
adulthood. It also illustrates the evolutionary forces that have
shaped hormone-behavior associations across species, including
research on humans, non-human primates, birds, and rodents. The
handbook will serve as an authoritative reference work for
researchers, students, and others intrigued by this topic, while
also inspiring new lines of research on interactions among
hormones, brain, and behavior in social contexts.
