Ebook: Health Psychology

With its clear descriptions of current research into the prevention, treatment, and causes of health related disorders, Health Psychology has helped thousands of college students learn how to maintain their health and guard against illness since the first edition was published in 1986. Using contemporary, real-world examples, the ninth edition focuses on the importance of social relationships, health behaviors, and co-management of health and illness. Taylor makes research accessible in a way that integrates theory with practical applications so that students come away with a current, thorough understanding of health psychology.
