About The Author

Elliot Aronson

Elliot Aronson

Dr. Elliot Aronson is Professor Emeritus at the University of California at Santa Cruz and probably the most renowned social psychologists on this planet. In 2002, he was chosen as one of the 100 most eminent psychologists of the 20th century. Dr. Elliot is the only individual in the 120-year history of the American Psychological Association to have acquired all three of its major awards: for distinguished teaching, distinguished writing, and distinguished research. Many different professional societies have honored his teaching and research as well. These include the American Association for the Advancement of Science, which gave him its highest honor, the Distinguished Scientific Research award; the American Council for the Advancement and Support of Education, which named him Professor of the Year of 1989; the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues, which awarded him the Gordon Allport prize for his contributions to the reduction of prejudice amongst racial and ethnic groups; and the William James Award from the Association for Psychological Science. He was named a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1992. A set of papers and tributes by his former students and colleagues, The Scientist and the Humanist, celebrates his contributions to social psychological theory and its application to real-world issues. Elliot’s own recent books for general audiences include Mistakes Were Made (but not by ME), with Carol Tavris, and a memoir, Not by Chance Alone: My Life as a Social Psychologist.

Reviews

“This is my favorite ebook on the topic (and I’m the son of a social psychology professor!). Aronson manages to speak to the layman (me) and the scholar (my father) with equal success. Though rooted in academia, The Social Animal 12e feels as modern and entertaining as anything by Malcolm Gladwell and Chuck Klosterman.” — Jesse Eisenberg, actor, and author

“A classic work has been brought into the modern age, and the result is both timeless and timely. Expertly interlacing sage wisdom and contemporary science, hard-won facts and personal stories, The Social Animal 12th edition remains the single best ebook ever written about the field of social psychology.” — Daniel Gilbert, Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, Author of the international best-seller, Stumbling on Happiness
