Hans Selye was the founder of the stress theory. The relationship between stress and disease is now well established, but was not always recognized. Selye was the first to incorporate the term stress into the medical lexicon as it was only previously used in physics to refer to the interaction between a force and the resistance to counter that force. Selye became known as the "father of stress research", and his life's work continue to have an influence in the medical field and the treatment and prevention of stress in the lives of many millions around the world. The three books in this lot include Stress Without Stress (hardcover), The Stress of my Life (hardcover), and The Stress of Life (softcover). $20 firm for the lot.
