<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">In Work, Stress and Coping the authors provide an historical account of workplace stress, highlighting what the research in the field of occupational stress tells us about the changing nature of work, and what individuals and organisations can do to create more liveable working environments.

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">The book explores the Forces of change - globalization, technology and social change within contemporary societies in depth and assesses how they have fundamentally changed the nature of work and the direction of research into stress and coping.

Capturing the history, context, critique and the transformation of theories and their translation into practice, the authors offer an insight into how managers and businesses have failed, the effects this has had on how work is experienced, the evolution and relevance of existing theories, alternative methods and future directions in relation to work, stress and coping both nationally and globally.

Suitable reading for students of HRM, Organisational Behaviour and Occupational Psychology.
