Priorities for Health Promotion and Public Health brings together
the evidence behind the UK's public health priorities into one
comprehensible textbook. Taking one theme per chapter, the book
examines the social and environmental influences that shape
people's health; health inequalities; poverty and health; mental,
emotional and spiritual health; sexual health; physical inactivity;
diet; tobacco; alcohol; drugs; weight; cardiovascular disease;
cancer; diabetes and dementia. The book takes a holistic approach,
combining scientific and epidemiological evidence with the
subjective experiences of those who undergo these health journeys.
Each chapter explains the causes of poor health and the evidence
behind the recommendations for good health and ends by
demonstrating the health benefits of positive action. This is a
core text for those studying health promotion or public health, and
a supplementary text for students of healthcare and social care.
The book focusses on adults' health in the UK, with examples from
the four nations, and provides some contextual international
information where relevant. Priorities for Health Promotion and
Public Health is an ideal companion for busy practitioners who work
across the wider sectors that support people's health and
wellbeing. It is also an essential textbook for students new to
health promotion and public health.
