Author Index.

Subject Index.
"This significant four-volume set will have immediate impact on the
field. It includes contributions from leading international social
psychologists on a broad range of topics involving
intra-individual, personal, interpersonal, intergroup, and societal
processes. The chapters, which focus on traditional and emerging
areas, are uniformly scholarly and interesting. By skillfully
assembling a mosaic of chapters on focused topics, Brewer and
Hewstone have captured both the expansiveness and conceptual depth
of the field while offering novel and insightful perspectives on
social psychology." John F. Dovidio, Colgate University


"The subject matter considered in these books is well balanced
and varied giving the reader a wide ranging view of the discipline.
Each volume stands well on it's own but the four together
make a complete overview of the subject. These volumes will enhance
everyone's understanding of the subject from student to academic. I
thoroughly recommend them" Social Psychological Review, October
2005
