The history of fatique shows how the »human motor« without fatigue became an ideal for the burgeois in the industrial upstart. To day the syndrome of chronic fatigue is prevalent among people in work-rehablitations.

The humanistic approach within health psychology have as an central theme the understanding of this complex field of illness and disease.
