This book is about the effects of stress on our nation’s people who are involved in police work, corrections, firefighters and related fire service employees, rescue and ambulance staff, emergency medical personnel including doctors and nurses, and members of the armed forces. It is dedicated to the effects of these various roles on the people who engage in the work. People who are engaged in one or more of these roles should read it and have the opportunity to better understand their own reactions to work-related stress. It clearly focuses on creating an understanding of the sources of stress that are common to these roles, how that affects us as individuals, and provides an understanding of how to healthfully cope with the stress in all of our lives.
