An Introduction to Health Psychology, second edition provides a comprehensive and lively introduction to the field.
Retaining the highly praised approach of the first edition, each chapter outlines and describes the theory and research before moving on to explore applications and intervention practice. Describing, predicting, and then intervening are primary goals of health psychologists and this book reflects this process.
The new edition has been thoroughly updated to include topics such as death, dying and loss, aging and lifespan, positive psychology and a wider range of cross-cultural issues and policy information.
Core topics and current debates are supported by many useful pedagogical features to aid learning such as a research focus, an applications box and new case studies.
Further key features include:
