The Cambridge Handbook of Violent Behavior and Aggression presents the current state of knowledge related to the study of violent behaviors and aggression. An important extension of the first Handbook published ten years ago, the second edition maintains a distinctly cross-disciplinary focus by representing the newest scholarship and insights from behavior genetics, cross-cultural comparative psychology/criminology, evolutionary psychology, criminal justice, criminology, human development, molecular genetics, neurosciences, psychology, prevention and intervention sciences, psychiatry, psychopharmacology, public health, and sociology. The Handbook is divided into introductory and overview chapters on the study of violent behavior and aggression, followed by chapters on biosocial bases, individual and interpersonal factors, contextual factors, and prevention and intervention work and policy implications. It is an essential resource for researchers, scholars, and graduate students across social and behavioral science disciplines interested in the etiology, intervention, and prevention of violent behavior and aggression.

Adolescent development is a distinct and important field of research within developmental psychology, and the ground-breaking conceptual work of Urie Bronfenbrenner and his ecological systems theory is among the most highly-cited and influential in this area. This SAGE Major Work covers key contributions in the area of adolescent development framed by Bronfenbrenner's seminal, from the latest developments in fMRI technology to current insights about adolescent health and problem behaviors, and is designed to be a touchstone text for scholars, practitioners and educators within the fields of developmental psychology, health, and education. Volume One: Biological Processes, Puberty, and Brain Development Volume Two: Proximal Developmental Contexts: The Family and Peer Group Volume Three: Schools, Achievement, Work, and Careers Volume Four: Distal Developmental Contexts - Neighborhoods, School, and Culture Volume Five: Health, Health-Risk, and Problem Behaviors
