Reviews

`It gives a good overview of the social identity approach, and shows how and where it might be uselful in explaining (inter)group phenomena. I recommend it to critical readers interested in (inter)group behaviour.' - Social Behaviours

It is an important book because it fills a gap in summarizing and clarifying social identity theory and by and by emphasiszing its enormous explanatory potential. I would recommend it as a very readable, high level introduction to social identity theory' - British Journal of Social Psychology
