AB Human  history  is  replete  with  stories  of  the  connection  between  stress  and  disease.  A  story  about  John  Hunter  (1728–1793),  a  surgeon  and  medical  educator  at  St.  George’s  Hospital  in  London,  is  that  he  stated  publicly,  “My  life  is  at  the  mercy  of  any  rogue  who  chooses  to  provoke  me,”  and  soon  afterward  died  following  a  contentious  meeting  with  hospital  administrators.
