Annotation Summary:
In a textbook for a modular undergraduate course, Krahe (U. of Patsdam) focuses on manifestations of aggression in social relationships between individuals or groups, rather than self- destruction and destruction of material objects. She reviews the current understanding and recent research, and points out areas of controversy or frontiers where more research is needed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
