Introduction to Health Promotion, 2nd Edition, is an academic textbook for students pursuing degrees in health promotion, health education, and public health. Author Dr. Anastasia Snelling combines theoretical perspectives with practical application guidance throughout the material. The text emphasizes health equity in early chapters to prepare learners for contemporary public health challenges.
Its core instructional content systematically reviews established health behavior change theories, specifically examining Social Cognitive Theory, the Transtheoretical Model, the Health Belief Model, and the Theory of Planned Behavior. To connect theoretical concepts with implementation, the volume details major program planning frameworks including PRECEDE-PROCEED, MATCH, CDCynergy, MAPP, and MAP-IT.
In addition, the material evaluates key health behaviors that drive population outcomes, concentrating on tobacco use trends, eating behaviors, and physical activity practices. This structured organization offers direct pedagogical support for introductory academic courses across health education and public health degree programs.
