Health psychology in global perspective

"In Health Psychology in Global Perspective, author Frances E. Aboud examines the health issues facing developing countries and compares them with issues faced by people in developed countries. She uses a psychosocial perspective rather than the biomedical and anthropological perspectives that are usually applied to health issues in developing countries. This volume is unique because it integrates diverse literature from a variety of disciplines, including epidemiology, psychology, education, anthropology, and nursing. Accessible to a broad audience, this volume brings mainstream health psychology concepts to bear on the problems of international health and cross-cultural issues to bear on concepts and theories in mainstream health psychology.". "A thought-provoking examination of the state of knowledge about health in developing countries, Health Psychology in Global Perspective is a valuable resource for academies and professionals in health psychology, cross-cultural psychology, clinical psychology, social psychology, anthropology, and public health."--BOOK JACKET.
