Reviews

"The present volume is an excellent summary of social psychological research, very readable and comprehensive." – Rebecca Coleman Curtis and Nina Katzander in PsycCRITIQUES"In just the last 10 years, there has been an explosion of scientific interest in self-regulation. New theories and exciting discoveries have appeared at an ever-increasing rate. Self-regulation as an area central to motivation science has never been more important to the science of psychology more generally. This is why this book is a 'must read' for all those interested in how and why people’s goals, feelings, and motivational concerns translate into the decisions they make and the actions they take. This book brings together a stellar group of scientists and scholars who offer the reader the best new ideas and findings in self-regulation. It is an exciting and inspiring read that is not to be missed." - E. Tory Higgins, Ph.D., Stanley Schachter Professor of Psychology & Professor of Management, Director, Motivation Science Center, Columbia University"Modernity affords people increasingly greater freedom of choice. Individuals in modern society become less predictable as externally-imposed constraints on what they believe, feel, and do are replaced by self-regulatory processes. The present volume reports the progress psychologists have made toward unraveling the mystery of how individuals regulate themselves. The volume provides a comprehensive and coherently organized review of the exciting new development in this rapidly emerging field of social psychological research." - Yaacov Trope, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Social Program Coordinator, New York University
