Health Psychology

The textbook Health Psychology, 7th Edition, offers students of health psychology, health promotion, and health behaviour an accessible framework for evaluating health behaviour, culture, and systemic change. Author David Marks applies an international critical biopsychosocial approach to examine how personal health experiences intersect with broader societal structures and psychological research.

Content coverage centers on macro-social and cultural issues in health alongside explicit attention to social justice. The material examines international public health issues, demonstrating how academic theory and empirical research directly inform public policy decisions across different global regions.

This edition is produced in full colour and features interactive learning aids, including Critical Discussions and Insights boxes. It provides guided study for students preparing for specialized coursework in health promotion, health behaviour, and applied psychology.
