We were pleased to be invited to work on this second edition of our volume for the Handbook of Psychology. We had felt that the first edition was a very solid effort, but did not anticipate the degree of success in terms of acceptance by the profession, reviews, and citations. Accepting the offer to work on the second edition was an easy and quick decision. In preparing the second edition, we carefully reviewed the offerings of the first edition. We felt that many of the chapters continued to be important and would be especially valuable with substantial updates. We also decided to replace several chapters with those covering new topics that we felt were increasingly important. For topics continued in the second edition, there were some changes in authors, primarily due to lack of availability. We placed as much emphasis on recruiting authors as we did in the first edition. In all cases, we were able to recruit individuals who are well-recognized as experts.https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/browse/book/10.1002/9781118133880/tocContributors: Easterbrooks, M.
