Description and Table of Contents
Description
A comprehensive and authoritative review of experience, theory and management/therapy of the stresses associated with life events (psychological and physical well being). Models of stress and illness based on sociological, psychological and psychobiological principles are described and there is a development of the links with intervention and therapy. Unlike other books on the subject, this volume combines specific work-associated stresses with research on cognitive factors, in order to predict reaction - addressing the question of why some people become ill or mentally disturbed, and why others do not. This book will be essential reading for researchers, students and practitioners in cognitive psychology, health psychology, behavioural and social medicine - and all those who come in contact with people experiencing stressful life events.
