An Introduction to Health Psychology Book

Health Psychology provides readers with a critical, thought-provoking introduction to this rapidly expanding discipline. Written by some of the world's leading health psychologists, it clearly and critically outlines the major areas of theory and research. The book is divided into three sections, covering health and illness behavior, process and outcome in illness, and health care contexts and the practice of health psychology. Within this structure, each chapter is authored by a leading expert in the subject and stands alone as an overview of a particular area. All the contributions have been carefully edited so that together they form a cohesive whole. The editors also provide an in-depth introduction to the field of health psychology and the volume as a whole.Read More

  • Product Description

    An Introduction to Health Psychology presents theory through an appreciation of how society and culture impact in practice. It focuses on three broad themes: * Health, health behaviour and staying healthy * Becoming ill and using healthcare * Being ill and the impact on the individual and their families. The book covers all mainstream health psychology topics and also provides coverage of crucial contemporary issues such as cross-cultural dimensions of health and illness. Chapters are structured logically and explanation delivered with real clarity. This is the book that will engage and teach students in an entirely new way.
