Description
This book provides a thorough and documented overview of the link between neuroticism and maladaptive consequences in the domain of physical and mental well-being. The literature on this topic is wide and scattered among different domains (research on stress and emotion, personality, health psychology, behavioural medicine, etc.), and this book does a good job in integrating these research areas along the common topic of what can indeed be considered the personality trait that has the most pervasive link with these outcomes.
