This work focuses on how stress evolves and is resolved in the interplay between persons and their social connectedness within family, tribe, and culture. The book maintains that the primary motivation of human beings is to build, protect, and foster their resource reservoirs in order to protect the self and its social attachments. The author searches for the causes of psychological distress and potential methods of successful stress resistance by probing the ties that bind people in families, communities, and cultures. By focusing on the "process" rather than the "outcomes" of stress, he reshapes the stress dialogue.
