New York Academy of Sciences, 1998 - Adaptation (Physiology) - 547 pages
This volume is taken from the proceedings of the Stress of Life Conference, held on July 1-5, 1997. It contains comprehensive summaries of the talks and discussions of an international and interdisciplinary congress on the stress phenomenon celebrating the 90th birth anniversary of Hans Selye, the founder of the stress concept. The book outlines major trends of future research and examines research hypotheses.
