Description - Health Psychology, Canadian Edition by Edward P. Sarafino

Health Psychology: Biopsychosocial Interactions First
Canadian Edition helps students to understand the interplay of
biological, psychological and social factors in people?s
health. It has a modular structure, which allows instructors to
choose to cover all of the systems at once or distribute them to
other chapters. The psychological research cited in the text
supports a variety of behavioural, physiological, cognitive, and
social/personality viewpoints. The Canadian edition includes health
care systems in a Canadian context as well as discussions of health
issues affecting marginalized groups, stress, substance use, health
services, fetal alcohol syndrome, aboriginal issues, and material
on social inequalities in the health services section. The book
also includes international examples and cross cultural references
to broaden the psychologist?s view of health issues around
the world and to highlight what works in the field.
