At the end of every chapter, For Further Information sections list book and web resources to provide an expanded perspective of concepts discussed in the text.New! Chapter 10, From Groups to Teams: The Changing Landscape of Organizational Life, summarizes the latest research on the dynamics of teams and applying it to business and mental health settings.New!
