The title says it all. I just needed this for a requirement for a class (The Management of Stress and Tension at Tomas Edison State College)

I have purchsed many books through amazon and have always been happy. I always by good or better when I purchase used books. This was far less then "Good". It was missing pages, most of it was highlighted and marked in. The condition of the book on the outside was OK but not nice enough to call it "Good". I now can not re-sell the book like I usually do because of the less then "Good" shape it come in.

I had a stress reduction class and we used this as a text book. I will never get rid of this book.. I learned so much about stress and stress reduction.

Book is good for class necessity. Seller was quick for delivery and good communication

I remember when the ideas from this text were taught back in the 1980's in a class at the University of Maryland called "Controlling Stress and Tension." I took the class from one of the authors and later became a T.A. in the class.

This was one of the best courses I ever took at U of MD.

I was an engineering major at the time and the professor knew that my future career would have alot of stress involved, so he tailored the paper I wrote to reflect these things. I had to research "Theory Z Management" (described briefly on Wikipedia) and how the principles from the class can help employees have a fulfilling work experience.

Since that time, I have used the principles from the class throughout my engineering career, later in law school and, currently, in my career in patents. The principles are things I actually use in daily life and, at times, I have used them to give me the strength to go on when I thought I was completely spent.

I wholeheartedly recommend this book and I thank the author for the teachings in that class.

the book came in the time!!! but it was a used a little more than i expected...
