After a chapter analyzing the kinds of issues in which psychology has taken an active role and the propriety and possible consequences of that role, contributions are grouped into three sections on international issues, domestic policies, and criminal justice. Each of several topics (in each section) is treated in two chapters by authors who have well-known (and opposing) opinions. Among the topics: nuclear policy, affirmative action, pornography, violence on TV, eyewitness testimony, and the effects of imprisonment, to name a few. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
