"Social neuroendocrinology is a rapidly growing scientific discipline that has revolutionized our understanding of the biological bases of all social processes. The Routledge International Handbook of Social Neuroendocrinology offers the most comprehensive and most authoritative review of this field of research to date. A must-read for all behavioral scientists." - Dario Maestripieri, The University of Chicago, USA
