Health psychology is developing at a rapid pace, reflecting changes in consumer expectations and developments in the understanding of the effects of pyschological processes on health. This book considers those processes which contribute to illness, such as stress and existing health beliefs, and also how health carers can develop better psychological skills and more sensitivity. This book should be of interest to health professionals - doctors, general practitioners, clinical psychologists and nurses.
