Stress is the process in which environmental demands exceed an individuals ability to cope, resulting in affective, behavioural, and physiological changes. In response to stress, the body activates several pathways as the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA), sympathetic-adrenal-medullary, renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and parasympathetic system in attempting to preserve homeostasis. This book provides new research on the impact chronic stress has on overall health.

This is the first book to critically engage with the use of ANT in tourism studies. By doing so, it challenges approaches that have dominated the literature for the last twenty years and casts new light on issues of materiality, ordering and networks in tourism. The book describes the approach...

While intersecting with different ho...
