About this title

Synopsis

This user-friendly dictionary provides definitions of a wide range of terms and concepts used by health professionals in the field of health promotion and health education. The terms reflect the process of health promotion and education in four settings: community; workplace; primary care; and schools. The dictionary also covers key terms from related public health disciplines such as epidemiology, health administration, biostatistics, environmental health and the behavioural sciences.

Review

I find this dictionary very useful for students (and professionals!) to learn the correct definitions of health education and health promotion terms. It is comprehensive and current, and I recommend it as a required textbook in professional preparation courses.
––Mark Tomita, editor, California Journal of Health Promotion and associate professor of health and community services, California State University, Chico

Any public health professional student, faculty, community health educator will benefit from having this valuable resource at their fingertips. It is handy to have a comprehensive compilation of terms on your shelf to save time when writing, teaching, or delivering health information. I strongly recommend this excellent and comprehensive text.
––Claudia S. Coggin, assistant professor and public health practice coordinator, University of North Texas Health Science Center at Forth Worth, School of Public Health

Experienced practitioners and novices alike will find useful applications for this handy reference book such as grant writing, scope of work development, training, journal submissions, or a quick and easy refresher course in health education theory and practice.
––Michele Jacknik, public health manager, Health Promotion and Education Services, San Bernardino County Department of Public Health

Constitutes an invaluable resource that should be on the desk of every student and practitioner of health education and health promotion.
––John P. Allegrante, professor of health education, Teachers College and Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University

This volume is essential for professionals who seek to communicate effectively as they develop multidisciplinary solutions to today s public health issues.
