Through an examination of psychological, personal and social influences on health, the authors demonstrate that wellness and illness are more than biological states, but are also social and personal events.
Debra Creedy, brings a nursing perspective to this edition, and reinforces the links between the theories of health behaviour, and their application in a practical health care setting. Updated case studies demonstrate the importance of an holistic approach to treating illness, and new pedagogical features throughout encourage students to reflect on their own experiences of health and illness. New coping tips are included which illustrate the importance of self-care during both the study and practice of health care delivery.
