Advances in Field Theory offers a comprehensive overview and analysis of one of the most influential theories in psychology. Based on the pioneering work of noted social psychologist Kurt Lewin, this impressive volume outlines the work of several generations of international field theorists and attests to the durability and utility of Lewin's work. A brilliant array of essays trace the history and development of field theory, and discuss its various applications in a number of settings. Topics addressed include managing social conflict, self-help groups, field theory and the construction of social problems, and academic sex discrimination, to name only a few. This tightly-edited, well-balanced volume is an essential resource for professionals and students in the fields of social psychology, clinical psychology, social work, and sociology.
