Author

Authorship and chapter attribution are kept explicit, especially for edited collections. Claims made by one contributor are not silently assigned to every editor.

Morgan has worked through three deadline cycles with rising exhaustion and detachment. For Burnout a Short Socio Cultural History, the decisive evidence is not one mood or quiz score but the pattern across demands, resources, recovery, and functioning.
