This update of the 2003 edition reflects the Institute of Medicine's affirmation of the Integrated Sciences Model, according to Sahler (U. of Rochester School of Medicine) and Carr (emeritus, U. of Washington School of Medicine). Contributors to nine sections, predominantly North American behavioral scientists and health professionals, review standard topics in behavioral medicine and new material on stress and illness, geriatric health, palliative care, health issues facing sexual minorities, health literacy, and changing risky behaviors. The text includes some 300 US Medical Licensing Exam-type review questions with an annotated answer key, recommended reading, and appendices on biostatistics and epidemiology.
