Handbook of Stress Medicine: An Organ System Approach (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780849325151)

Psychological stress is often overlooked by medical doctors as a cause of physiologically based illness; however, clinical studies show that stress has a vital impact on both the mental and physical well-being of patients. Handbook of Stress Medicine: An Organ System Approach focuses on the relationship between stress and the physiology and pathology of the major organ systems of the body. It suggests that understanding stress-related illness can help hold down medical costs through more accurate diagnoses and promote improved preventative care.
