  • Personality and Social Behavior

    Edited by Frederick Rhodewalt ...
    Series series Frontiers of Social Psychology
    The study of the relationship between the person and the situation has had a long history in psychology.

  • The Social Psychology of Morality

    Edited by Joseph P. Forgas, Lee Jussim, Paul A.M. Van Lange ...
    Series series Sydney Symposium of Social Psychology
    Ever since Plato’s ‘Republic’ was written over two thousand years ago, one of the main concerns of social philosophy and later empirical social science was to understand the moral nature of human beings. The faculty to think and act in terms of overarching moral values is as much a defining hallmark of our species as is our intelligence, so homo moralis is no less an appropriate term to describe ...

  • Mathematical Aspects of Quantum Field Theory

    by Edson de Faria, Welington de Melo ...
    Series Book 127 - Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    Over the last century quantum field theory has made a significant impact on the formulation and solution of mathematical problems and inspired powerful advances in pure mathematics. However, most accounts are written by physicists, and mathematicians struggle to find clear definitions and statements of the concepts involved. This graduate-level introduction presents the basic ideas and tools from ... Read more

  • Group Processes

    Edited by John M. Levine ...
    Series series Frontiers of Social Psychology
    It is impossible to understand human behavior without understanding the critical role that groups play in people’s lives. Most of us belong to a range of formal and informal groups, including families, work teams, and friendship cliques. These groups absorb a great deal of our time and energy and are instrumental in satisfying our most fundamental needs. In addition, they connect us to larger ... Read more

  • Non-homogeneous Random Walks

    Lyapunov Function Methods for Near-Critical Stochastic Systems

    by Mikhail Menshikov, Serguei Popov, Andrew Wade ...
    Series Book 209 - Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics
    Stochastic systems provide powerful abstract models for a variety of important real-life applications: for example, power supply, traffic flow, data transmission. They (and the real systems they model) are often subject to phase transitions, behaving in one way when a parameter is below a certain critical value, then switching behaviour as soon as that critical value is reached. In a real system, ... Read more
