"In the past 30 years, knowledge about emotions has grown exponentially, and we are fortunate to have this handbook to provide detailed, comprehensive coverage of these advances. For those investigating emotions, as well as clinicians who care for patients with mood and emotional disorders, this book is essential reading." - Kenneth M. Heilman, James E. Rooks Jr. Distinguished Professor of Neurology and Health Psychology, University of Florida, USA

"It is often difficult to find a text on affective processes that does not simply espouse one particular theorist’s perspective. The Handbook, however, provides models from a variety of perspectives, offering my students a well-rounded approach to emotion theory and research. This textbook remains a primary resource for my doctoral psychology students." - Thomas B. Virden, Clinical Psychology Program, Midwestern University, USA
