The American Psychological Association has been building a series of core lexicographical reference works derived from The APA Dictionary of Psychology, published in 2006. Like its three predecessors, this fifth publication draws on the original corpus of terms, but it differs in that the reach is broader--extending beyond psychology to applicability in allied social, behavioral, and health sciences. Zedak (psychology, U. of California, Berkeley) acted as editor-in-chief, marshaling the work of 10 contributing editors to present 4,000-plus entries consisting of clear, concise definitions.
