The collected papers in this volume cover the effects of
environmental stress under a biological and energetic model.
Examples are taken from fossil and living animal populations, and
from outlier human populations and traditional societies. These
examples indicate that stress increases energy demands and so
reduces reproductive fitness. A wide range of stressful situations
also are analyzed under the less stringent conditions experienced
by modern human populations, when cultural factors assume
importance. These emphasize the interaction between genetic,
physiological, psychological and social factors in everyday life
and in clinical settings.
