A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This revision of Access to Health provides expanded coverage of complementary and alternative medicine as well as free access to StudentBody101.com, a brand new online assessment tool.

This market-leading health text continues to provide students with the tools necessary to develop a comprehensive understanding of current trends in health, as well as how these trends impact their everyday lives. The addition of several new boxed features, new material on the emerging concept of spiritual health, and a new chapter on complementary and alternative medicine all serve to maintain the contemporary focus for which Access to Health is known. The seventh edition builds on the success of previous editions by providing students with the practical means to assess and manage their own health behaviors within the context of current public and community health issues.

New with this edition is access to the StudentBody101.com assessment tool, available FREE upon request as a shrinkwrap package with the text. This fully customizable Website with assessments, validated by the World Health Organization, provides students with invaluable interactive material on seven major topics underlying personal health―alcohol, sexuality, tobacco, drugs, stress, nutrition, and fitness―that can be customized to fit the scope of the course. News stories, Health Assessments, and Weblinks are just a few of the features that are available to the students to enhance their classroom discussions.
