Health Psychology in Action cover

A definitive guide to the growing field of health psychology, which showcases contributions from academics and professionals working at the cutting edge of their discipline.

  • Explores the field of modern health psychology, its latest developments, and how it fits into the contexts of modern healthcare, industry and academia
  • Offers practical, real-world examples and applications for psychological theory in health care settings
  • Provides a timely resource to support the new HPC registration of health and other psychologists
  • Includes contributions from practitioners in a wide range of health care settings who share their own vivid personal experiences, as well as more general guidance to applying theory in practice
  • <

“Overall, these stories are pleasingly positive and the contributors’ pride in their practice is as likely to be as much an encouragement to prospective practitioners as is the appeal of the diversity of health psychology itself.”  (QMIP Bulletin, 1 October 2012)
