Knowledge about stress and its management has grown dramatically since "Stress and Coping" appeared over a decade ago; the third edition features some of the most important current thought by leaders in the field. Articles investigate such topics as health psychology, natural disasters, gender difference and stress, the lives of people with AIDS, new approaches to stress management, and stress management programs in the workplace.
