The ABC's of Stress Management:
Taking Control of Your Life.
This 190-page, 5x8 book is written by Dr. Livingston. We now live in the

Stress is unavoidable; however, and certain kinds are destructive to our health
and other kinds are necessary for our daily functioning, especially when we are
involved in selected performances. The main purpose of this easy-to-understand
book on stress, which has specially drawn illustrations to complement the
adjacent text, is to present a simplified and basic approach to understand
stress, thereby controlling its potentially destructive side effects.
