I am sympathetic to his
effort to credit Aristotle with something very like modern
biological insights, and indeed, I find Leroi's arguments that Aristotle invented the concepts of metabolic networks and feedback
control plausible.
This e-book focuses on salivary cortisol in relation to the following topics: psychosocial work environment (
effort reward imbalance and job demand vs
control model), psychosocial resources (mastery, perceived
control, sense of coherence), psychosocial risk factors (perceived stress, depression, vital exhaustion, burn - out), sleep quality,
biological markers (bodily factors, cardiovascular risk factors, inflammation and metabolism) and somatic outcome.
