Sinossi

We are all health communicators - whether it is interacting with our medical practitioners, wearing a fitness tracker, giving encouraging words to a friend or family member, or searching for health information online.
Health Communication in Everyday Life introduces students to health communication and teaches them how they can be more effective in their own communication about their health. The publication features examples about college students and college health issues to illustrate the many aspects of health and health communication discussed demonstrating how health communication is more relevant to the reader's daily life than they may have thought.
Health Communication in Everyday Life by Linda C. Lederman, Gary Kreps, and Anthony Roberto:

  • Examines the changing role of patients in health care, formal health organizations and communication among health professionals, factors like gender and culture in health care, health care campaigns, and current and future trends in health communication.
  • Reviews the inception and growth of health communication, provides an explanation of how and why it has emerged as a central area of study in human communication over the last three decades, and the wide array of areas health communication now embraces.
  • Examines the plethora of health information on the internet not all of which is created equal. Students will learn to obtain, understand, critically evaluate, and apply credible health information.
  • Is interdisciplinary! The publication includes aspects of human, interpersonal, group, and organizational communication along with public health, medical sociology, healthcare economics, and epidemiology.
