The Oxford Handbook of Evolutionary Psychology and Behavioral Endocrinology Summary

The Oxford Handbook of Evolutionary Psychology and Behavioral Endocrinology by Lisa L. M. Welling (Associate Professor of Psychology, Associate Professor of Psychology, Oakland University)

The Oxford Handbook of Evolutionary Psychology and Behavioral Endocrinology offers a comprehensive and compelling review of research in behavioral endocrinology from an evolutionary perspective on human psychology. Chapters, written by renowned experts on human behavior, explore a number of subtopics within one of three themes (1) development and survival, (2) reproductive behavior, and (3) social and affective behavior. Such topics include hormonal influences on life history strategy, mate choice, aggression, human hierarchical structure, and mood disorders. This Handbook is situated at the intersection of evolutionary psychology and behavioral endocrinology. Its interdisciplinary approach makes it an important resource for a broad spectrum of researchers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates who are interested in studying the motivations and mechanisms that affect behavior.

The Oxford Handbook of Evolutionary Psychology and Behavioral Endocrinology Reviews

Editors Welling and Shackelford want the research reviewed herein to help readers and investigators interested in behavioral endocrinology to approach empirical inquiry using the framework provided by evolutionary psychology.
