Allostasis, homeostasis and the costs of physiological adaptation / edited by Jay Schulkin.

• Introduction / Jay Schulkin -- 1. Principles of allostasis : optimal design, predictive regulation, pathophysiology, and rational therapeutics / Peter Sterling -- 2. Protective and damaging effects of the mediators of stress and adaptation : allostasis and allostatic load / Bruce S. McEwen -- 3. Merging of the homeostat theory with the concept of allostatic load / David S. Goldstein -- 4. Operationalizing allostatic load / Burton Singer, Carol D. Ryff and Teresa Seeman -- 5. Drug addiction and allostasis / George F. Koob and Michel Le Moal -- 6. Adaptive fear, allostasis, and the pathology of anxiety and depression / Jeffrey B. Rosen and Jay Schulkin.

• "This book, the first edited volume to focus on allostasis, orients the reader by addressing basic physiological regulatory systems and examining bodily regulation under duress. It integrates the basic concepts of physiological homeostasis with disorders such as depression, stress, anxiety, and addiction and will therefore appeal to graduate students, medical students, and researchers working in related areas."--BOOK JACKET.
