It is said that behind every successful man there stands a devoted and capable woman. The three famous chemists Perkin, Kipping and their collaborator Lapworth married three sisters: Mina, Lily, and Kathleen Holland. The three Holland sisters kept their husbands in close and very productive collaboration throughout their lives, thereby greatly increasing their scientific output. They functioned as a productive scientific family. However, the life and work of the men is thoroughly documented, but little is known about their wives. Professor Eugene G. Rochow, a world-renowned scientist, wrote this biographical historical novel with the help of a grandson, Dr. Brian Kipping. Professor Rochow did not intend to write a bare-bones biography. He took care to make the book factually accurate. Wherever there are no facts, he has not hesitated to flesh out the account with imagination and actual experience of others in order to make the text more readable.
Thoroughly revised and updated, this third edition offers a
comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the social psychology of
aggression, covering all the relevant major theories, individual
differences, situational factors, and applied contexts.
Understanding the causes, forms, and consequences of aggression and
violence is critical for dealing with these harmful forms of social
behavior. Addressing a range of sub-topics, the first part deals
with the definition and measurement of aggression, presents major
theories, examines the development of aggression and discusses
individual and gender differences in aggressive behaviour. It
covers the role of situational factors in eliciting aggression and
the impact of exposure to violence in the media. The second part
examines specific forms and manifestations of aggression, including
chapters on aggression in everyday contexts and in the family,
sexual aggression, intergroup aggression, and terrorism. The new
edition also includes additional coverage of gender differences,
gun violence, and terrorism, to reflect the latest research
developments in the field. Also discussing strategies for reducing
and preventing aggression, this book is essential reading for
students and researchers in psychology and related disciplines, as
well as practitioners and policy makers.
