The Psychology of Health by Keith Phillips

Health is one of the fastest growing areas of the behavioural sciences. As such it occupies an increasingly important place in undergraduate and postgraduate courses. Students in other disciplines, such as nursing, social work, psychotherapy and occupational therapy, also need to learn about the role of psychology in understanding health and the treatment of illness.
Marian Pitts is Professor of Psychology at Staffordshire University. Previously she worked in Africa and has taught at the universities of East London, Tennessee and Zimbabwe. She is author of The Psychology of Preventive Health (1996). Keith Phillips is Professor of Psychology and Head of the School of Social and Behavioural Sciences at the University of Westminster.
