Psychological Resilience and Wellbeing
by Stephen Palmer and Kristina Gyllensten
Resilience and wellbeing - namely how people cope, handle and even thrive despite stress and adversity - are topics in the psychological literature canon that are gaining increasing attention. Within these fields researchers have aimed to identify individual characteristics that help to protects against hardship and difficulties such as poverty and mental illness. They have also investigated the actual process of resilience in order to understand human functioning in difficult situations.
These three volumes provide the reader with access to key documents which demonstrate the evolution of this dynamic area of study over the past few decades, with each volume opening with an introductory chapter written by the editors.
Psychological Stress
by Stephen Palmer and Kristina Gyllensten
Stress has been called the 'great modern disease' and it causes many negative effects for societies, organizations, and individuals. Stress may also be responsible for psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and burnout. Indeed, stress and its consequences have been described in the literature since the 19th-century with William James and Carl Lange’s work.
This three-volume major work contains articles which trace the development of ideas around stress from the early twentieth century to the modern day, spanning the fields of psychology, applied mental health, coaching, and cognitive behavioural psychotherapy.
