Crisis Of Competence: Transitional..Stress And The Displaced

First published in 1990. As the fifteenth volume of the Brunner/Mazel Psychosocial Stress Series, this book focuses on a psychosocial stressor that affects thousands of people every year. The authors argue that the displaced worker is denied the dignity bestowed by employment, in addition to a source of income, security, and insurance benefits. This volume forms a new orientation for thinking about human behavior under extraordinary conditions.
