SummaryTable of Contents
This best-seller is known in the field for being the most comprehensive treatment of groups available. This revision has been thoroughly updated to reflect the latest research as well as the latest applications to organizational, industrial, educational, judiciary, athletic, and interpersonal settings. Writing in a friendly style, Forsyth builds each chapter around a separate, real-life case example and integrates various perspectives from disciplines such as psychology, sociology, anthropology, education, and political science to achieve a comprehensive analysis of group behavior. The concepts, tightly woven with pedagogy, teach the students about group dynamics rather than simply exposing them to basic principles and research findings.
