This ambitious book provides the latest research in leading topics
of behavioral medicine and evidence-based strategies for its
application in solving clinical problems. Each of the book's
clinical chapters, covering a breadth of topics from doctor-patient
communication to patient adherence, preparation for surgery and
cancer, begins with a clinical case study that guides the reader
through the chapter. The author expertly takes the reader through
relevant background information, including the epidemiology and
medical background of the disease, the psychological predictors of
onset or prognosis in the condition, and relevant psychological
interventions. The chapters conclude by revisiting the case study
with an evidence-based solution that applies the topics discussed
to better treat the patient's body and mind. Included among the
topics: Models of stress and methodological considerations in
behavioral medicine Doctor-patient communication and increasing
patient adherence Psychosocial factors in coronary heart disease
Psychosocial factors and the prognosis of cancer Psychological
aspects of health and illness in the elderly Emergency mental
health after traumatic events This depth of clinical guidance and
exploration of biobehavioral mechanisms makes Behavioral Medicine:
An Evidence-Based Biobehavioral Approach an essential resource for
practitioners and practitioners-in-training, including medical
students, health psychologists and other professionals in health
promotion, disease prevention, psychotherapy and counseling, and
primary care medicine.
