Work psychology is the study of work behavior and the psychological dimensions that both produce and result from it. It has developed in recent decades into a field that takes a comprehensive view of 21st century workers and their psychological context and condition. Now fully updated to reflect the latest research and practical insights, it promises to continue as an indispensable resource for advanced courses in work psychology.

Chapters written by a global team of experts
Overview of classic and current theories that comprise Work Psychology
Detailed discussion of topics such as leadership, emotion work, sustainable careers, job crafting and the future of work
A unique focus on positive aspects of work, including motivation, engagement, personal resources and positive workplace interventions

An Introduction to Contemporary Work Psychology is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in work psychology courses, as well as for students or researchers looking for a reference or introduction to the subject.

"Understanding work from various psychological perspectives has become highly relevant for all those involved and interested in the diverse and changing nature of work-life. This book is a treasury of what is important to know of current work psychology. It is timely, comprehensive, and enjoyable reading.
