The second part of the book focusses on specific forms and manifestations of aggression, including chapters on aggression in everyday life and in the family, sexual aggression, intergroup aggression, and terrorism. The final chapter presents strategies for reducing and preventing aggression. The new edition also includes additional coverage of aggression and violent behaviour that stems from the COVID-19 pandemic, new sections on the transfer of aggression from the virtual to the real world, as well as cyberbullying and aggressive fantasies.</p><p>Accessibly written and featuring chapter summaries, tasks, and strategies for reducing and preventing aggression, this book is essential reading for students of psychology and sociology who study aggression and violence.
