Synopsis:

This text presents scientific studies addressing practical questions in psychosomatic medicine: how do psychological factors impact our health, via the immune system? In scientific, but readable language, the 20 chapters here address topics such as: breast cancer - is there a psychological risk factor in disease?; stressful events, depressive disorders and immunity; stress, tumour metastasis and the effectiveness of antitumour chemotherapy; pituitary-adrenal influences on immunoconditioning; and brain lateralization and immunomodulation. In general, the key question is how psychological factors might modulate the function of the immune system via neurohormones, and this book analyzes many interesting aspects of this question.
