Advance praise: 'Bob Hockey has produced an outstanding book containing easily the best theoretical account of fatigue ever produced. This book (which also provides a fascinating historical account) is destined to become an 'instant classic'.' Michael W. Eysenck, Roehampton University Advance praise: 'This book is a perfect example of how psychological analysis can add value, depth, and an originality of perspective to a topic significant to us all. Eclectic, scholarly, but most of all accessible, Hockey's book guides us through the wide-ranging literature related to fatigue with an impressive grasp. He amply demonstrates the very best qualities of twentieth-century British psychology from which he comes.' Mark Lansdale, University of Leicester
