Synopsis

In this comprehensive bibliography con­cerning stress burnout, Riggar examines and annotates the best publications deal­ing with the stress burnout syndrome among professionals whose career is helping other people.

Stress burnout is pervasive. The qual­ity of work life for helping professionals has reached a state where many who intend to help others are not only hurt­ing their clients and patients but are also harming themselves. This book―divided into three categories of signs/symptoms, causes/sources, and coping strategies―serves to help these caring individuals recognize the symptoms, un­derstand what the syndrome is and why they or their colleagues have fallen prey to it, and gain practical strategies for cop­ing with the problem. Thus the thor­oughness of the annotations often pre­cludes the need for further research.
