This 3rd edition is accessible, comprehensive and up-to-date. It uses a wealth of tools to enhance learning for the student and integrates theory and practice clearly and in an engaging manner. I highly recommended it. Dr Jane Walsh, National University of Ireland, Galway"This book is excellent for newcomers to health psychology. I would especially recommend it to undergraduate students and health professionals." Professor Lynn Myers, Brunel UniversityBringing together core topics and current debates, An Introduction to Health Psychology, Third edition is a comprehensive and lively introduction to this fascinating area. This third edition retains the highly praised approach of previous editions, with each chapter providing an overview of the theory and research before moving on to explore applications and intervention practice. The primary goals of health psychologists are to describe, predict and then to intervene, and the book continues to reflect this process.New for the third edition:The text has been thoroughly updated and revised around the themes of health behaviours, treatment and stress. Applied examples and news headlines with commentaries bring topics to life and stimulate interest. Cross-references make it easy to find further information in other chaptersPacked with engaging and useful features including research focus boxes, applications boxes and case studies, this textbook is ideal for students on health psychology modules and those studying in related fields such as medicine, health and social care, or nursing.About the authors:Val Morrison is Reader in Health Psychology, and a chartered health psychologist, based at Bangor University.
