"The evaluative sections would be of particular interest to indidviduals looking for new areas to explore within the field, and with the book as a whole being clearly written it would be accessible to any reader with a psychological or related background." (Social Psychological Review, 2011)"Given its comprehensiveness and attention to both basic and applied issues, this is a volume that anyone wishing to understand the development of jealousy simply must consult. Highly recommended. All readers." (Choice, 1 October 2011)
