Description

Explore the history of one of the most significant theoretical advances in medical history. This book examines the work of Hans Selye, a prominent physician researcher who hypothesized that a stress mechanism regulates physiology and explains the origins of disease. Set against the backdrop of 20th-century research rigor and progress, the text details how Selye's concept became a promising prospect for an effective theory of medicine. It traces the international search for this mechanism and the subsequent years where the research was largely abandoned and forgotten. This work provides a deep look into the evolution of medical theory and the impact of Selye's foundational ideas on the field of healthcare.
