The Cambridge Handbook of Violent Behavior and Aggression

This handbook presents the study of violent and aggressive behavior as an interdisciplinary field requiring analysis across biological, psychological, relational, social, and cultural levels. Edited by Daniel J. Flannery, Alexander T. Vazsonyi, and Irwin D. Waldman, the volume brings together international scholars to evaluate contemporary theories, empirical findings, methodological approaches, and prevention strategies. Its broad framework connects the etiology and developmental course of violence with practical concerns in mental health, education, justice, public policy, and public health, thereby providing an integrated resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers.
