Stress and Emotion: A New Synthesis

This volume is a sequel to the landmark work that established an exciting new field of study, ""Stress, Appraisal and Coping"" (Lazarus and Folkman, 1984). The author explores the trends in research and theory, focusing on the rationale for a cognitive-meditation approach to stress and emotions. He makes clear distinctions between social stress, physiological stress, and psychological stress.
