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.Volume One: The History and Development of TheoriesVolume Two: The Measurement of StressVolume Three: The Management of Stress

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.Volume One: The history and development of theories: Resilience and wellbeingVolume Two: The measurement of resilience and wellbeingVolume Three: The enhancement of resilience and wellbeing

This four-volume Major Work compiles literature which deals with conditions that - in recent parlance in Western societies – have come to be labelled as ‘common mental health problems’. The articles within these volumes explore the causes and understandings and prevention and treatment of mental health problems, drawing upon philosophical, conceptual, historical and empirical discussions of fear and sadness. The set focuses on ontology (what exactly is a ‘common mental health problem’?), as well as diverse views about epistemology. These include different perspectives about how misery in its various forms in recent times in the West has been turned into a set of medical conditions and the different forms of favoured knowledge developed by both clinical and non-clinical researchers. This collection offers a broad and inclusive view of the field, providing depth and breadth for the reader and a comprehensive and nuanced account of a highly contested field. Volume One: Misery Across Time and PlaceVolume Two: Medical Approaches to Common Mental Health ProblemsVolume Three: Psychological Approaches to Common Mental Health ProblemsVolume Four: The Social Context of Common Mental Health Problems
