James Paget Henry: a man for all seasons

Jim Henry is best known for his seminal research on psychosocial stress and cardiovascular disease, and studies of the neuroendocrine correlates of animal behaviors during stress. However, he had a wide range of interests, made important contributions in many other areas, and served as a remarkable catalyst in advancing the work of other scientists. These numerous and less appreciated accomplishments could not possibly be covered in an article of this length. Hopefully, some personal observations, and a brief sketch of his extension of Carl Jung's research and his involvement in the U.S. space program, may help to illustrate the superb character and qualities of this modest and multifaceted individual, as well as a few of his lesser known, but equally meaningful achievements.
