Originally published in 1983, there had been significant advances in genetic and neural research and a much more sophisticated and heuristic approach to the measurement and conceptualization of aggressive behavior had developed. The ten chapters in this volume provide a thorough overview of these new approaches and methodologies.

From a team of leading experts comes a comprehensive, multidisciplinary examination of the most current research including the complex issue of violence and violent behavior. The handbook examines a range of theoretical, policy, and research issues and provides a comprehensive overview of aggressive and violent behavior. The breadth of coverage is impressive, ranging from research on biological factors related to violence and behavior-genetics to research on terrrorism and the impact of violence in different cultures. The authors examine violence from international cross-cultural perspectives, with chapters that examine both quantitative and qualitative research. They also look at violence at multiple levels: individual, family, neighborhood, cultural, and across multiple perspectives and systems, including treatment, justice, education, and public health.

In this work, figures in the field of childhood aggression share what is known about the cultural, biological and psychological roots of violence and develop intervention strategies to deal with the needs of young people. Coverage includes clinical assessment and treatment of children with inappropriate aggressive behaviour; socioenvironmental factors that contribute to inappropriate aggressive behaviour; behavioural and neurobiological consequences of environmental and emotional insults; neurochemical control of aggression and the moral and ethical implications of psychopharmacology in children; and psychosocial intervention strategies for helping children who are excessively aggressive.

Rather than look strictly at violence and its implications - fatalities, crime, and assault - this work instead looks ahead, in order to prevent violence rather than simply to act in reaction to it. By using a methodology of "Aggression Management", those responsible for the safety of others may circumvent the standard practice of mere "conflict resolution" by dealing with the problem before it creates conflict. Because everyone experiences and manages anger differently, "Aggression Management" teaches readers not only how to measure their own aggression, but that of others as well. The result empowers the reader to stop problems before they even develop.

The relationship between affective-emotional processes and aggressive behavior has been a central topic of scientific interest in the aggression literature for decades. Emotions are not merely epiphenomena of aggression: they can be triggers, amplifiers, moderators, or even ultimate goals of aggressive behavior. Insights into the functional relation between emotions and aggression are of theoretical relevance, and above all are crucial for finding solutions for efficient control, prevention, and reduction of aggression. This book brings together leading experts from fields such as social, personality, developmental, and physiological psychology, presenting state-of-art research on this relationship. The book describes assessment and treatment approaches, as well as theoretical concepts and research findings concerning the interconnections between emotions and aggression.

Management of aggressive behavior is an effort to provide protection for the client and healthcare professional against any type of assault from either party. Assaultive behavior in the healthcare setting compromises the safety of the healthcare workers, the patients and visitors to the emergency rooms, mental health units, group homes, long term care facilities, etc. The abusive behavior undermines the efforts of the health care professionals that are in many cases, the victims. Poor behavior management costs the hospital time, money and high turnover rates. This book discusses the meaning of assaultive behavior and crisis, the types and causes of crisis, General safety measures, Personal safety measures, The assault cycle, Aggression and violence predicting factors, Obtaining patient history from a patient with violent behavior, Characteristics of aggressive, and violent patients and victims, Verbal and physical maneuvers to diffuse and avoid violent behavior, Strategies to avoid physical harm, Restraining techniques., Appropriate use of medications as chemical restraints, and lastly, emergency preparedness for hospitals. Each of the seven chapters has assessment questions to ensure proper understanding of the topics taught. This is an ideal textbook to teach healthcare professionals about Management of Aggressive Behavior or Crisis Prevention & Intervention in Healthcare.

This volume is an overview of research examining the relationship between hormones and aggressive behavior. The last 15 years have witnessed a tremen dous growth of knowledge in this area, yet reviews written by specialists are virtually nonexistent. This work is an attempt to provide a comprehensive and cohesive synthesis of this literature. Chapters 1-7 provide an analysis of hor monal influences on the major forms of aggressive behavior, including intermale, interfemale, shock-induced, maternal, territorial, and predatory aggression. The focus of Chapters 8-12 is an examination of the mechanisms through which hormones might act to produce changes in agonistic responding. Genetic, de velopmental, neural, and biochemical influences are considered. It is well known that environment, social context, and experience modulate the effects of hor mones on behavior. Thus, Chapters 13-15 are designed to review the literature concerning hormone-pheromone interactions, hormonal responses to compe tition, and the influence of social context on the endocrine system and aggressive behavior. Frequently, the principles advanced by behavioral endocrinologists are based on research in one species, the rodent. To provide a more comparative perspective and to examine specifically the generality of those principles gen erated for rodents, Chapters 16-22 examine hormone-aggression relationships in a variety of species, including fish, birds, amphibians, reptiles, infrahuman primates, humans, ungulates, and insects. This volume should be useful to both beginning and advanced researchers in animal behavior, behavioral endocri nology, physiological psychology, neuroendocrinology, zoology, physiology, and psychiatry.
