Rezensionen
"The reader will find in the text a comprehensive description of the state-of-the-art in many topics of health psychology, including stress, coping and adaptation to the disease, intervention and prevention strategies. It is valuable that historical perspectives and research trends are presented. Many questions that arise during the reading will find an answer in the text. However, some questions remain opened, indicating a need of further studies and investigations, with possible future research trends.
Treated topics cover an overview of conceptual and professional issues, an in-depth analysis of great number of medical diseases, attention to health psychology changes across some developmental stages, such as the life span, and contextual issues, such as gender, culture and ethnicity. Moreover, primary care psychology, together with complimentary and alternative therapies are analyzed. Considered medical diseases include asthma, obesity, smoking, musculoskeletal conditions, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, headaches, cancer, pain, insomnia, coronary heart disease and hypertension, gastrointestinal diseases and spinal cord injury." -- Frontiers in Psychology for Clinical Settings, 2013
