Health Psychology by Edward P Sarafino

It takes a lifespan approach to show how health concerns change from childhood through to old age and covers such topics as AIDS, drug and alcohol abuse, eating and nutrition and stress. In-depth discussions on methods and programs for health promotion are provided and vignettes, examples and cases appear throughout to hold the student's interest in this rapidly changing field.Edward P. Sarafino is a professor of psychology and is on the board of trustees for The College of New Jersey. He received his BA from Chico State University and his doctorate from the University of Colorado.
