Review
"Given the recent flurry of emotion research, the second edited edition of the Handbook of Emotions by Lewis and Haviland-Jones (2000) represents a timely and broad collection of contemporary issues in the emotion literature....All in all, this volume goes far to restore the status of emotions as something more than an epiphenomenon while providing psychologists from the cognitive-behavioral tradition with helpful ways to integrate basic emotion research into a cognitive-behavioral framework."--Journal of Cognitive Psychotherapy
PRAISE FOR THE PREVIOUS EDITION "Simply put, it is the best single-volume compendium of the state of the art in emotion research."--Cognition and Emotion
"For me, as an analytic clinician and teacher interested in what we know, think we understand, and need to learn about the nature of emotion, this is a book I am glad to have in my library because the editors have offered much here and that directly bears on psychoanalytic clinical work and theorectical understanding of emotion. Additionally, there are many chapters that seem well beyond my current interests and level of expertise, but could be useful at some point in the future...I recommend Lewis and Haviland's Handbook of Emotions as a valuable reference source."--Psychoanalytic Books -- Review
Review
"This book served as the core reference for a graduate seminar I taught on emotion theory and research. All of the students found the assigned readings to be highly readable and comprehensive. I can't think of a better resource on the current status of emotion research for both graduate students and advanced undergraduates."--Alfred W. Kaszniak, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Arizona
"An excellent text for graduate-level courses on emotion and motivation....In addition, graduate students and faculty alike can use the Handbook as a springboard for developing their research ideas on various emotion-relevant topics."--Julie Hakim-Larson, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Windsor, Canada
"This comprehensive, scholarly Handbook will further propel interest in the role of emotion. The first edition was named a Choice magazine Outstanding Academic Book of 1995. It is likely that the present second edition will garner similar accolades. It has my vote! Highly recommended for researchers and clinicians." --Donald Meichenbaum, PhD, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Department of Psychology, University of Waterloo
"Emotion is a complex area, and one to which readers bring widely varying interests, biases, and levels of sophistication. This volume does very well in covering the basic and applied topics that are relevant to a broad audience. Presented by a distinguished group of experts who have much of import to say, the second edition of the Handbook is valuable as both a professional resource and a graduate-level text." --Richard S. Lazarus, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley
"This is a collection of extraordinarily cogent and well-written essays and authoritative reviews of the literature. Its coverage is very broad, reflecting the pervasive role of emotion in neuroscience, the social sciences, and the humanities. It is truly a handbook--in the classic sense of a standard reference source--and it is the only book in the field that is worthy of the designation." --Joseph J. Campos, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley
"Provides a highly readable and comprehensive overview of past and current developments in the field and signposts future directions. The organisation and structure of the book is well thought out with each chapter showing breadth and depth of highly informative, authoritative and stimulating discussions."--ESCalate

This volume is a nice collection of emotion topics including facial expression, emotional development and emotion in atypical populations. A bit technical at times, but a good new edition to add to your resources.
The chapters in this book are written by some of the most influential emotion researchers of the last decennia. Different angles are presented throughout the sections. As such it is a good addition to psychology researchers who want to have an overview of the field.
