Opis

This collection of works is part of a continuing series of volumes based on the annual University of Miami Symposia on Stress and Coping. These symposia focus upon important contemporary research topics related to the basic physiological mechanisms, psychosocial factors, developmental aspects and mental health factors in the relationship between stress and disease.

Recenzje

"The stylistic shift throughout the book from the orientation of the neuropsychophysiologist to the social epidemiologist exemplifies well the growing difficulties that the researcher must face in controlling or accounting for variance....for researchers and students interested in connecting psychology to cardiovascular physiology, or for those who want a more psychophysiological perspective of cardiovascular research, then the converging spectrum of this area is well illustrated here."
