Resilience and Health in a Fast-Changing World draws on theoretical investigation as well as empirical research to provide answers to key questions concerning psychological resilience. What decides whether a person suffering misfortune bounces back quickly or falls into despair for years? Which processes and mechanisms constitute psychological resilience? Is there a particular model of human adaptation shaped by evolutionary processes that would enable a person to maintain mental health in unfavorable and changing circumstances? This volume is informative for both academics and practitioners.
Tadeusz Marian Ostrowski is the head of the developmental and health psychology department at the Jagiellonian University's Institute of Applied Psychology.

Krzysztof Gerc and Iwona Sikorska are assistant professors at the Institute of Applied Psychology, Jagiellonian University.
