Through four editions, with more than 100,000 copies sold, this book has become the gold-standard textbook for health behavior courses. This essential resource includes the most current information on theory, research, and practice at individual, interpersonal, and community and group levels, with substantial new content on current and emerging theories of health communication, social marketing and e-health, culturally diverse communities, health promotion, the impact of stress, the importance of networks and community, social marketing, and evaluation. New contents include an update to the selection of theories, both established and emerging; e-health and social media as integrated into health communication; global health as an application of health behavior theory; culture and health disparities; more guidance on how to select suitable theories for specific problems/issues. In addition to a selection of basic ancillary materials, the editors offer a dedicated website with student-written "theory in action" examples; expanded bibliographies; exemplar measures of theoretical constructs; and relevant links. The fields of public health, health behavior and health education have changed in three key ways since the prior edition. First, the areas of practice have become increasingly global in nature. Second, the digital revolution and information technology, including mhealth and ehealth, have evolved and continue to be used in new ways in practice and research. Third, educators, students and the public have increasingly come to expect access to supplementary materials that are high quality, interesting and engaging. The new edition reflects these changes. The primary audience is beginning level graduate students in public health, health behavior, and health education. Additional audiences include health professional students and post-graduate fellows (e.g., nurses, nutritionists, physicians, pharmacists, social workers, dentists). The book serves as a key reference for researchers but is considered a "basic" (not advanced) source. There is a large international audience for the book, and the new edition serves this audience with the addition of many new global cases and examples.
