Rezensionen

This volume stands out in three different ways. First it is a
fine collection of papers on issues that really matter in current
in occupational health and safety. Second, its excellent
contributions are either of high scholarly interest or of practical
relevance, or both. And, last but not least, it brings together
leading authors from all around the world. In other words,
Contemporary Occupational Health Psychology is up-to-date,
relevant, and international. As such academic scholars, students
and practitioners will benefit from its rich content.

psychology. Anyone concerned about the health and safety of
