Since 1950, when Hans Selye first devoted an entire book to the
study of stress, professional and public concern with stress has
grown tremendous ly. These concerns have contributed to an
understanding that has impli cations for both prevention and
treatment. The present book is designed to combine these data with
the clinical concerns of dealing with stressed populations. In
order to bridge the gap between research and practice,
contributions are included by major researchers who have been con
cerned with the nature of stress and coping and by clinical
researchers who have developed stress management and stress
prevention programs. The book is divided into three sections. The
goal of the first section is to survey the literature on stress and
coping and to consider the implica tions for setting up stress
prevention and management programs. Follow ing some introductory
observations by the editors are the observations of three prominent
investigators in the field of stress and coping. Irving JaniS,
Seymour Epstein, and Howard Leventhal have conducted seminal
studies on the topic of coping with stress. For this book they have
each gone beyond their previous writings in proposing models and
guidelines for stress prevention and management programs. While
each author has tackled his task somewhat differently, a set of
common suggestions has emerged."
