Handbook of Behavioral Medicine presents a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge of behavioral science techniques in the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of various health related disorders. Contributions from a wide variety of internationally recognized experts in behavioral medicine and related fields are featured, including the fields of education, social work, and physical therapy. Foundational issues in behavioral medicine are explored in Volume One, including various topics relating to concepts, theories, treatments, doctor/patient relationships, common medical problems, behavioral technologies, assessment, and methodologies. The focus of Volume Two is on medical interface, addressing a variety of issues relating to health disorders and specialties; social work, medical sociology, and psychosocial aspects; and topics relating to education and health. With its authoritative and innovative coverage of all aspects of this rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field, Handbook of Behavioral Medicine is an invaluable resource for clinical professionals and researchers concerned with the treatment of sickness and training of health professionals.
