This book provides a concise-yet-comprehensive overview of the broad-ranging topics in the field of violence and aggression. It uses a functional approach that acknowledges the evolutionary, cultural, and operant nature of violence and aggression. The book defines the nature of different forms of violence and aggression; examines epidemiology and risk factors; describes biological, cultural and individual causes; and discusses individual and societal prevention and treatment.

Key areas of coverage include:

  • Epidemiology of violence and aggression.
  • Biological and social causes of violence and aggression.
  • Cultural interventions, psychotherapies, and individual biological interventions.
  • The effects of violence and aggression in special populations.
