Stress: Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pathology: Volume Three, the latest release in the Handbook of Stress series covers areas of stress-related or induced physiology, biochemistry and pathology, providing a quick orientation on the subject for research, clinical and everyday understanding. Integrated closely with new behavioral findings and relevance to human conditions, the concepts and data in this volume offer readers cutting-edge information on the physiology of stress. This volume is of prime interest to neuroscientists, clinicians, researchers, academics, and graduate students in Neuroendocrinology, Neuroscience, Biomedicine, Endocrinology, Psychology, Psychiatry and some aspects of the Social Sciences, including stress and its management in the workplace. Contains articles carefully selected by eminent stress researchers and prepared by contributors representing outstanding scholarship in the fieldRichly illustrated with explanatory figures and tablesCovers areas of stress-related or induced physiology, biochemistry and pathology, providing a quick orientation on the subject matter INDICE: 1.
