The positive benefits of physical activity for physical and mental health are now widely acknowledged, yet levels of physical inactivity continue to be a major concern throughout the world. Understanding the psychology of physical activity has therefore become an important issue for scientists, health professionals and policy-makers alike as they address the challenge of behaviour change. Psychology of Physical Activity provides comprehensive and in-depth coverage of the fundamentals of exercise psychology, from mental health, to theories of motivation and adherence, and to the design of successful interventions for increasing participation. Now publishing in a fully revised, updated and expanded fourth edition, Psychology of Physical Activity is still the only textbook to offer a full survey of the evidence base for theory and practice in exercise psychology, and the only textbook that explains how to interpret the quality of the research evidence. As the field continues to grow rapidly, the new edition expands the behavioural science content of numerous important topics, including physical activity and cognitive functioning, automatic and affective frameworks for understanding physical activity involvement, new interventions designed to increase physical activity (including use of new technologies), and sedentary behaviour. A full companion website offers useful features to help students and lecturers get the most out of the book during their course, including multiple-choice revision questions, PowerPoint slides and a test bank of additional learning activities. Psychology of Physical Activity is the most authoritative, engaging and up-to-date book on exercise psychology currently available. It is essential reading for all students working in behavioural medicine, as well as the exercise and health sciences.

Although professional interest in vegetarian nutrition has now reached unprecedented levels, scientific knowledge regarding vegetarian diets and their positive effects on human health is far from complete.
"Lose a pound of body fat every three days." Wow, that sounds great, but can it really be possible? The answer is YES Not only is it possible, but some of the patients Dr. Vetere has treated in more than twenty-five years of full-time practice have actually lost more, and they lost it even faster.

Rest is vital to our well being. As important as adequate hydration and nourishing foods, the human need for rest is often overlooked and can be the first thing compromised when we are stressed and busy. We are having difficulty sleeping and even more often, never feeling truly refreshed. In "The Power of Rest" readers will learn about the crucial four types of rest: physical, mental, social, and spiritual. This 30 day innovative program is based on the author's years of research and experience with rest-deprived patients. Through step-by-step instructions, readers will learn how to engage the body's power to restore, renew and replenish. This program serves anyone feeling sleep deprived or fatigued as well as offering a potent program for those wanting to lose weight or heal. Also, the lack of cellular repair is a major contributing factor to aging. This program can reverse that tired look that often prompts the call to a plastic surgeon. Developed by a highly regarded physician trained in sleep medicine, psychiatry, occupational health, and internal medicine, Dr. Matthew Edlund brings to us the perfect blend of knowledge and experience. In this program, rest is literally restoration as Dr. Edlund skillfully teaches you how to repair, reproduce, rebuild, and renew the cells that determine our vitality.
