- Synopsis
- In some cultures the concept of stress does not exist. But that doesn't mean that people aren't stressed. This book, written by leading health psychologist and member of the British Psychological Society Dr Michael E. Hyland, will help psychologists, students, healthcare practitioners, managers, and those affected by stress, to strip away the myths around stress. Hyland looks at what stress is, why it affects some people more than others and how the human body biologically responds to stress. He then goes on to consider the various relaxation approaches to curing stress (and how effective they are), before placing stress in the context of human evolution and arguing that it is healthy to be stressed... some of the time. This rigorous yet compassionate introduction is based on the latest research and is an exciting addition to John Murray's fast-growing All That Matters series. As an introduction to the topic or as a guide for coping, Stress: All That Matters offers an illuminating insight into an interesting and complex concept.
