Summary Stress: A Brief History is a lively and accessible look at the origins of the field of stress research. The book explores different theories and models of stress, examines the contributions of different researchers, identifies common themes and controversies, and culminates in a discussion of what may be needed to better organize research and what obligations stress researchers have to those whose working lives they study.
