It was the first, comprehensive European Handbook in this field and found a widespread market. Since then the discipline has developed rapidly, with a multitude of important new studies and research areas and many interesting applications. The editors decided therefore to produce a revision, but in the final version the changes have been so extensive that the result is not just an updated book, but a completely rewritten New Handbook. It will be an invaluable and unique resource for both practitioners and students in work and organizational psychology. |

Publisher Description: The introductory volume of the Handbook of Work and Organizational Psychology is concerned with definitional, historical and methodological fundamentals. It explores the nature of studies in work and organizational psychology; the role played by the professional psychologist; and the ways in which the discipline has developed within Europe. The editors attempt to characterize the domain of work and organizational psychology, and examine relations between this and other subdisciplines within psychology, as well as those disciplines outside psychology also concerned with work and organization. |
