This comprehensive update of the now classic text applies the most
current findings across disciplines to the treatment of pathogenic
human stress arousal. New and revised chapters bring together the
art and science of intervention, based in up-to-date neuroscience,
starting with an innovative model tracing the stress-to-disease
continuum throughout the systems of the human body. The authors
detail the spectrum of physiological and psychological treatments
for the stress response, including cognitive therapy, neuromuscular
relaxation, breathing exercises, nutritional interventions, and
pharmacotherapy. They also assess the strengths and limitations of
widely-used measures of the stress response and consider the value
of personality factors, cultural considerations, and resilience in
stress mediation. Included in the coverage: The anatomy and
physiology of the human stress response. Advances in neuroscience:
implications for stress. Crisis intervention and psychological
first aid. Neurophysiological rationale for the use of the
relaxation response. Physical exercise and the human stress
response. The pharmacological management of stress reactions.
Disaster Mental Health Planning. Cultural Awareness and Stress. The
Fourth Edition of A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of Human Stress
Response offers readers a dual perspective, exceedingly useful in
examining the origins of the stress response, and in preventing and
treating the response itself. This rich integrative volume will
join its predecessors in popularity among practitioners and
students across disciplines and specialties.
