This book reviews research on worldview beliefs, morality beliefs, and decision-making, contributions of experimental psychology to forensic science; sexism and empathy: differences as a function of sociodemographic variables and relations between both constructs; alexithymia in eating disorders; and grief, grieving and beyond.
