Choice Review
This handbook serves as a significant tool for those seeking to understand the complexities of self-regulation. Hoyle (Duke Univ.) has brought together an impressive contingent of authors and developed a work that balances theoretical foundations and practical applications. The contributors do a masterful job of integrating what have often seemed disparate findings in the self-regulation literature. The emphasis on personality and self-regulation and significant work in the area of neuroscience provide an integrated framework through which these areas of research can (indeed do) communicate with and inform each other. Although the collection includes many excellent chapters, this reader found the chapter titled "Acting on Limited Resources" especially interesting and helpful in clarifying how personality and self-regulatory processes might interact. Those working with individuals who have self-regulatory issues are likely to find this volume particularly useful. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty, professionals. R. E. Osborne Texas State University--San Marcos
