520    "In recent years, psychological scientists' narrow focus 
       on negative emotions and antisocial behavior has broadened
       to include a panoply of positive emotions such as empathy,
       compassion, gratitude, and forgiveness and a new emphasis 
       on prosocial, generous, altruistic behavior. At the same 
       time, neuroscientists, primatologists, and evolutionary 
       biologists have begun to identify the evolutionary and 
       neurological roots of prosocial feelings and actions. 
       Research shows that human beings have an innate capacity 
       for prosocial behavior, but the inclinations underlying 
       such behavior can be inhibited or overpowered in selfish, 
       neurotic, or culturally engrained attitudes and values. 
       Genes, personality, past social experiences, social and 
       cultural identities, and contextual factors can all 
       influence the degree to which human behavior is empathic 
       and generous or cruel, vindictive, and destructive. 
       Prosocial Motives, Emotions, and Behavior, with a subtitle
       borrowed from an inaugural address In Abraham Lincoln, is 
       a comprehensive examination of the interplay of these 
       influences. Part I considers theoretical perspectives on 
       prosocial behavior; Part II illuminates the psychological 
       processes that underlie prosocial behavior; Part III 
       focuses on specific emotions such as compassionate love, 
       gratitude, and forgiveness; Part IV examines prosocial 
       behavior between individuals at the dyadic level; and Part
       V investigates prosocial behavior at the societal level, 
       with an emphasis on solving intractable conflicts and 
       achieving desirable social change. This stimulating, wide-
       ranging volume is sure to be of great interest to 
       psychologists, social scientists, and anyone with an 
       interest in understanding and fostering prosocial 
       behavior"--Jacket. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA,
