Palestinian refugees&rsquo; experience of protracted displacement is among the lengthiest in history. In her breathtaking new book, Ilana Feldman explores this community&rsquo;s engagement with humanitarian assistance over a seventy-year period and their persistent efforts to alter their present and future conditions. Based on extensive archival and ethnographic field research, <I>Life Lived in Relief</I> offers a comprehensive account of the Palestinian refugee experience living with humanitarian assistance in many spaces and across multiple generations. By exploring the complex world constituted through humanitarianism, and how that world is experienced by the many people who inhabit it, Feldman asks pressing questions about what it means for a temporary status to become chronic. How do people in these conditions assert the value of their lives? What does the Palestinian situation tell us about the world? <I>Life Lived in Relief</I> is essential reading for anyone interested in the history and practice of humanitarianism today.&#160;&#160;<BR />

Stress is a set of emotional, physical, physiological and behavioral responses that occur when an event is thought to be hazardous or disturbing, and beyond our capacity to cope with. Of course, we should not forget that stress is essentially a very positive part of human nature.
