The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis controls reactions to
stress and regulates various body processes such as digestion, the
immune system, mood and sexuality, and energy usage.
This volume focuses on the role it plays in the immune system and
provides substantive experimental and clinical data to support
current understanding in the field, and potential applications of
this knowledge in the treatment of disease.
* Evidence presented in this book suggests that the nervous,
endocrine, and immune systems form the Neuroendoimmune Supersystem,
which integrates all the biological functions of higher organisms
both in health and disease for their entire life cycle.
* Contributors include both the scientists who initiated the work
on the HPA axis and on the autonomic nervous system, and those who
joined the field later.
