Imitation 1st Edition

Imitation 1st Edition by Naomi Van Bergen, Allard R. Feddes, Liesbeth Mann, and Bertjan Doosje is a compelling exploration of how mimicry, social learning, and cultural transmission shape behavior across personal, organizational, and societal contexts. This authoritative volume draws on contemporary social-psychological research to illuminate why we copy one another—and what that means for education, leadership, marketing, and community life.

Discover clear, evidence-based explanations and vivid examples that make complex theory accessible. The authors synthesize experimental findings, real-world case studies, and applied insights to show how imitation drives cooperation, spreads norms, and sometimes fuels polarization.
