Peter Salovey received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Yale University in 1986 where he is presently an associate professor contributing to both the social/personality and clinical psychology programs. His major research interest is the functions of human emotion, especially the manner in which emotions direct cognition, motivate social behavior, and color close relationships. Most recently, Salovey has been concerned with complex emotions such as envy and jealousy, and the influence of emotions on perceptions of health and illness. He is the co-author of PEER COUNSELING (with Vincent J. D'Andrea) and REASONING, INFERENCE, AND JUDGEMENT IN CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY (with Dennis Turk). Salovey is also the editor of the Guilford Emotions and Social Behavior Series.
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF JEALOUSY AND ENVY is must reading for anyone in
the close-relationships field, but will be of interest to anyone at
all who has ever experienced these emotions or who has been the
victim of them in someone else. The book is full of interesting
insights....Anyone and everyone will stand to gain from this book
not only from an academic standpoint, but from the very practical
standpoint of understanding experiences they confront in their
everyday close relationships.--Robert J. Sternberg, IBM Professor
of Psychology and Education, Yale University
This book offers an extremely distinguished set of authors who are
all at the forefront of the growing work on jealousy and envy.
Salovey has done a great service in pulling together into this one
volume these scholars' work on an emotion that almost everyone has
felt. This book lays bare the basis for the legitimate scientific
study of jealousy and envy and shows how theoretical and empirical
developments have culminated in some very strong and broad advances
in our knowledge. The book is an outstanding sign of the advances
that can be made in understanding the processes of personal
relationships and of persons in relationships.--Steve Duck, Ph.D.,
Daniel & Amy Starch Research Professor, The University of Iowa
- Provides the most comprehensive review available of the current
state of research on jealousy. It should be very valuable to
researchers and clinicians, as well as to graduate students and
advanced undergraduates. --Contemporary Psychology, 2/17/1991ƒƒ
This excellent book confronts the therapist. How these exciting
ideas can be utilized in a clinical setting...is a task that keen
therapists will regard as one worth tackling. --Journal of Sex &
and Marital Therapy, 2/17/1991
