This authoritative volume provides a comprehensive road map of the important and rapidly growing field of emotion regulation. Each of the 30 chapters in this handbook reviews the current state of knowledge on the topic at hand, describes salient research methods, and identifies promising directions for future investigation. The contributors--who are the foremost experts in the field--address vital questions about the neurobiological and cognitive bases of emotion regulation, how we develop and use regulatory strategies across the lifespan, individual differences in emotion regulation tendencies, social psychological approaches, and implications for psychopathology, clinical interventions, and health.
recent perspectives in emotion regulation This book is really interesting. Emotion regulation is one of the most important goal in psychotherapy, because maladaptive emotions are at the origin of a number of psychiatric disorders, more notably anxiety and depression. Emotion disregulation is also one of the most invalidating symptoms in personality disorders like the borderline. The book analyzes the problem from different point of views, mainly in the perspective of the integrative cognitive neuroscience, but also on the developmental perspective, the psychodinamic point of view and the social psychology.
Excelent ! a must for clinitians and researchers. This book has been very usefull both for practice and research. I strongly recomend it for anyone interested or working with emotion regulation in different contexts.

Essential Reading This handbook is the first book that offers a true comprehensive, integrative, and thorough review of the field of emotion regulation. It is bound to become the primary resource for scholars and non-scholars who are interested in emotion regulation and the main reference text in the field. Although there are some published books on the topic, such books tend to selectively highlight only one or two perspectives. In contrast, this book includes 30 chapters that together represent multiple distinct perspectives, representing different disciplines within and even outside of psychology. These chapters are written by leading experts and provide clear and insightful reviews of existing methods and approaches. The chapters also present cutting-edge research. Another impressive quality of the handbook is that although chapters are incredibly diverse with respect to their theoretical and methodological approaches, they are nonetheless elegantly tied together. Each chapter provides definitions of common core concepts, addresses common core questions, and many make a reference to common theoretical models in the field. Gross' Handbook of Emotion Regulation is an important resource to those who are interested in learning about adaptive (and maladaptive) ways to regulate emotions in both the self and in others. Furthermore, it is a must-read for anyone who wishes to gain a deep and comprehensive understanding of the field, as it is explored from a scientific perspective.
An essential volume The field of emotion regulation is a difficult one to adequately cover, because it impinges on so many aspects of life, and is such a critical but little understood part of what it means to be human. Until now, there has been no really good, single source for those wanting to educate themselves on what is known about when and how we control our emotions and when and how they control us. Although designed primarily to cover research findings in emotion regulation for an academic audience, this book will be a valuable resource to anyone interested in understanding how we control and manage our emotions. Insightful, well-written chapters by leading experts on nearly every aspect of emotion control, including cutting-edge findings in neuroscience and therapeutic innovations, described the ideas , controversies, and research in at a level of detail and depth that made for an extremely thought-provoking and satisfying exploration. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and recommend it to students and teachers of psychology, as well as anyone looking to understand more about their own feelings and how to control them.
Highly Recommended This handbook is impressive in its scope, spanning across multiple domains of psychology and biology. It presents cutting-edge research in a digestible format, and provides an invaluable resource to researchers and clinicians alike.
