Originally published in 1976, this volume reports research that
will help us to understand the causes of psychogenic diseases. It
deals both experimentally and theoretically with the question of
symptom specificity in psychosomatic research - why some
individuals respond to psychological stress with gastric disorders,
others with sexual impotence, and still others with high blood
pressure. As the author notes in summarizing his conclusions, "The
repeated pairing of activation of a given organic system with
intense nervous stress directs the pathological influence of the
stressor primarily upon the system activated; subsequently the
natural stimuli which would ordinarily activate the system in a
normal manner sustain the pathological stressor's effect as a
conditioned stimulus for the stressor effect." The translation of
this work from the original Russian brings to the attention of
Western investigators new and useful models of stress-induced
disorders, and sheds new light on the pervasive problem of
psychosomatic disease.
