My research program focuses on the behavioral and mental construction of heroes, villains, underdogs, great leaders, martyrs, and dead legends. I have written two books on heroes, both co-authored with George Goethals. The first, published in 2011 by Oxford University Press, is called HEROES: WHAT THEY DO & WHY WE NEED THEM. The second, entitled HEROIC LEADERSHIP, was published by Routledge in 2013.
Please visit my two different HEROES blogs. One blog focuses on commentary, analysis, and profiles of specific heroes -- www.blog.richmond.edu/heroes
My other blog is called REEL HEROES. Here we analyze heroes in the movies -- www.reelheroes.net
