Review: Principles and Practice of Stress Management by Simone Grebner (Michigan, USA) 5 Stars
February 13, 2009
This is THE book on stress management I always waited for! I rely on this book in both university teaching and in stress management trainings for employees. The book is timely, very comprehensive and extremely useful for researchers as well as practitioners. It puts sufficient emphasis on theoretical underpinnings and gives concrete examples for exercises and client or training participant instructions. Great! Simone Grebner, PhD

Books for New uni Course by Charles R. James 5 Stars
August 23, 2008
The order arrived in a matter of days. I haven't opened the box yet, much less looked at the book(s). Too tied up in the course work I am doing. But undoubtedly it will be fine. Every Amazon and Amzona partner purchase so far has been just as expected. I have bought all my textbooks for my graduate level academic career for either Amazon or one of its partners. Superb value for the money.
