Handbook of Self-Regulation by Roy F Baumeister

Addresses the theories, findings, and practical applications in the field of self-regulation. This book examines the conscious and nonconscious processes by which people regulate their thoughts, emotions, attention, impulses or appetites, and task performances; and the developmental trajectories of these capacities.

'Baumeister and Vohs have assembled an impressive 'who's who' of researchers in the field of self-regulationPresented is state-of-the art, scholarly, and creative work that examines the topic from cognitive, neuroscientific, social learning, developmental, and a variety of other perspectives. The Handbook gives equal attention to basic theory and practical applications, speaking to questions ranging from the nature of the self to the ways we control sexual behavior, eating, and alcohol use. This volume is a basic and necessary resource for anyone who plans to do research on self-regulation or who wishes to understand the current state of knowledge in the field.' - David Funder, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Riverside, USA
