Publisher Synopsis
[T]he book is well written, the ideas are presented clearly and the arguments are empirically grounded. Professor Tyler not only captures the reader's attention, but also manages to change his/her mind about the topic. The book is highly recommended to researchers, academics, professionals and even laypeople interested in the topic. -- Francesc S.

Numerous recent studies are cited that build his assertions and provide documented results for motivating cooperation within a variety of group settings. -- Paula Tripp, Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences Read more...
