    Social behavior is fundamental to human experience, yet the neural mechanisms that govern how individuals perceive, interpret, and respond to one another are only beginning to be understood. Neuroscience of Social Behavior: Bridging the Mind and Society offers a rigorous and integrative examination of the biological foundations of social interaction, synthesizing current knowledge from neuroscience, psychology, sociology, and anthropology into a coherent framework.The book addresses the full scope of social neuroscience, from the evolutionary origins of the social brain to the challenges posed by digital communication and artificial intelligence. Core topics include social perception, language and communication, empathy, mentalizing, moral cognition, decision-making, and the neural basis of both prosocial and antisocial behavior. The text further explores how hormones and neurochemistry modulate social bonds, how social reward and pain systems shape motivation, and how clinical conditions disrupt social functioning. Computational and translational perspectives are integrated throughout, connecting laboratory findings to real-world implications.By bridging multiple levels of analysis, from neural circuits and neurochemistry to behavior and societal context, this volume equips readers with a comprehensive understanding of how the brain supports, and sometimes undermines, our capacity for social life.

    Traditional encyclopaedias present information in alphabetical order and are somewhat held hostage to a static structure. A digital reference can be sorted and organised more dynamically. We take advantage of this more flexible structure by cross-referencing contributions so that readers can create their own structure, one that suits their learning needs and those of their students and trainees. For example, a reader could select “child and adolescent” entries and directly cross-reference with “behavioural or cognitive/behavioura... In this edition all content is updated, and most content areas will be retained, focusing on major modes of psychotherapy practice and core psychotherapy processes. Outdated entries have been culled or combined with other entries in a manner that better communicates the content to present-day readers (e.g., “water-misting therapy” can be addressed in a more cohesive entry covering the use of punishment techniques more generally).
