The Alexander L. George Book Award is given for the best
book published in the field of political psychology during the previous calendar
year. Befitting the extraordinary and far-reaching contributions to scholarship
of Alexander George, the award winning work should be one that demonstrates the
highest quality of thought and makes a major substantive book-length
contribution to the field of political psychology, broadly defined.The award winner will be determined by an interdisciplinary committee.
As judged by the award committee, the book should increase
substantially our
understanding of an issue (or issues) that is central to the
concerns of political psychology and the world in which we live.
The 2010 award recipient will be strongly encouraged to attend the
2010 Annual Meeting
and Award's Banquet in San Francisco, California, USA.
