This book develops a new model of the genesis of health, based on the interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The authors build upon the basic theories of health and the popular model of salutogenesis to offer a comprehensive interdisciplinary theory of health genesis and success: Productive Processing of Reality (PPR).
