In the World Library of Psychologists series, international experts
present career-long collections of what they judge to be their
finest pieces-extracts from books, key articles, salient research
findings, and their major practical theoretical contributions.
Susan T. Fiske has an international reputation as an eminent
scholar and pioneer in the field of social cognition. Throughout
her distinguished career, she has investigated how people make
sense of other people, using shortcuts that reveal prejudices and
stereotypes. Her research in particular addresses how these biases
are encouraged or discouraged by social relationships, such as
cooperation, competition, and power. In 2013, she was elected to
the National Academy of Sciences, and, in 2011, to the British
Academy. She has also won several scientific honours, including the
Guggenheim Fellowship, the APA Distinguished Scientific
Contributions Award, the APS William James Fellow Award, as well as
the European Federation of Psychologists' Associations Wundt-James
Award and honorary degrees in Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, and
Switzerland. This collection of selected publications illustrates
the foundations of modern social cognition research and its
development in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century.
In a specially written introductory chapter, Fiske traces the key
advances in social cognition throughout her career, and so this
book will be invaluable reading for students and researchers in
social cognition, person perception, and intergroup bias.
