Description
An up-to-date discussion of a wide and representative range of areas in a field of growing interest. The international contributors, many of whom are established authorities in the field, discuss applications to clinical issues and emotion theory. Wagner presents the most recent theoretical and empirical work in areas ranging from the nature of arousal through emotion theory to interpersonal psychophysiology and applied aspects, such as anti-social behaviour, cardiovascular disease and psychopathology. This is a fast developing field and the contributors demonstrate the direction in which research in the practice of psychophysiology is currently developing. The book has two major thrusts: the recent attention paid by clinical psychologists and others interested in applied issues to social factors in the phenomena or conditions that concern them; and consideration of the role of physiological factors in the production and experience of emotions.
