Health and human behaviour : an introduction Ken Jones Published by Oxford University Press (2003) |
Book description
Each of us experiences health and illness as essential conditions of
life. This book examines the interactions between the person and the
experience of being well or ill. It looks at the impact of being well or
ill on the thoughts, feelings and behaviour of the person, and the
effects that thoughts, feelings and behaviours may have on health. It is
designed to be readable and integrated and is focused on the situation
of the individual within a social context. Cases are used to illustrate
the content of each chapter, and provide interest for the reader. Entry
level students in the health professions, particularly those with
patient contact such as medicine, nursing, physiotherapy, radiography,
dietetics, occupational therapy and communications should find this
textbook a valuable resource.
