<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Identifying and understanding camouflaged aggression and the characteristics of organizations that foster and enable it.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In Camouflaged Aggression in Organizations, Alexander Abdennur unveils his theory of two modes of aggression in organizations: confrontational and camouflaged. Focusing on camouflaged aggression, he describes patterns of behaviour and shows how these intersect with personality and sociocultural factors. He defines the effects of non-confrontational aggression in terms of organizational and mental health. In discussing prevention and control of this harmful behaviour, Abdennur recommends a cognitive approach to manage workplace hostility in businesses, the public sector, and not-for-profit organizations. Professionals, professors, and students of psychology, organizational behaviour, and criminology will find this a necessary and insightful resource.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A thorough, thoughtful, and incisive analysis of aggression in organizations and how to manage it.
