Smoking, personality, and stress: psychosocial factors in the prevention of cancer and coronary heart disease

Arising from the third Cary Conference held in 1989, Comparative Analyses of Ecosystems investigates the utility and limitations of cross-system comparisons in ecology. The contributors, all well-known in their field, support their conclusions on the use and meaning of such comparisons by presenting novel analyses of data utilizing a variety of cross-system approaches in marine, freshwater, and terrestrial systems. This monograph on environmental sciences, agriculture and agronomy, environmental geology is intended for researchers and graduate students.
