This unique text takes a holistic approach to show you how different biological and medical aspects of health operate at the cellular level all the way up to the society level, and back again.

It is a must-read for students of health psychology, applied psychology, nursing, and public health. Rachel C. Sumner is a psychobiologist and chartered psychologist with the British Psychological Society Division of Health Psychology and a senior research fellow at Cardiff Metropolitan University.
