Protective and Damaging Effects of the Biobehavioral Stress Response From Molecules to Man

This volume focuses on emerging evidence that the release of stress-related hormones and other mediators leads to adaptation under most circumstances, but results in detrimental effects when these hormones are overproduced or dysregulated. This volume should generate interest in finding ways to maximize the beneficial aspects of the adaptation to stressors and minimize the damaging aspects. Included are contributions from a satellite session commemorating the second anniversary of 9/11.
