| Summary: | "The recognition that stress and health are interrelated now pervades many fields. From psychology to nursing and sociology to biology, new research and new theories are fast being introduced. But, as with most examples of fields, the study of relation between stress, coping, and health lacks systematic development. With this volume and under the expert editorship of Virginia Hill Rice, a team of expert practitioners and scholars in the field present the broad range of issues that come into play here, such as response-oriented stress, stimulus-oriented stress, stress, coping, and health in children, family health, beliefs and cultural attitudes and many more. The result is an inspiring document that balances theory, research, and measurements; and will serve as a complete reference and guide for clinicians, researchers, and scholars in the health disciplines. For students in those disciplines, this book is the most complete and sophisticated learning tool available to date."--Publisher description. |
