About the Author

Dr Stuart McClean is a social anthropologist and social scientist working at UWE, Bristol as a Public Health academic. He is leader of the MSc Public Health Programme, a successful and internationally recognised Masters. He is also a research theme leader in the Public Health and Wellbeing Research Group on ′Inequality, Disadvantage and Public Policy′. Stuart is a fellow of the Royal Society of Public Health, the Royal Anthropological Institute and the Higher Education Academy, and is the Book Review Editor for the international journal ′Health′, the co-editor of Folk Healing and Health Care Practices in Britain and Ireland (Berghahn, 2010), and more recently the co-author of Thinking About the Lifecourse (Palgrave, 2014). He holds a number of professional roles at the University, including Vice Chair of the Faculty Board and a member of the University Academic Board. He is also Pathway Lead (Health and Wellbeing) for the ESRC South West Doctoral Training Partnership.

Having graduated in Geography from the University of Sheffield in 1987, Nick firstly trained as a Registered General Nurse in London, and subsequently completed his MSc degree in Health Promotion at the University of Manchester in 1991. His growing interest in health inequalities led him into a career in health promotion, working with Wigan Area Health Authority as a Health Promotion Officer for HIV and AIDS. In 1993, he was appointed as a Lecturer in Health Promotion at Liverpool John Moores University, and since 1998 has worked at UWE Bristol as a Senior Lecturer in Public Health. In 2003, Nick completed his PhD with the University of Bristol, having completed an ethnography involving men in prison, exploring prison masculinities as determinants of health. This led to various funded research projects involving people in the criminal and youth justice systems, including a Big Lottery funded three-year study involving young offenders, undertaken in partnership with a music charity. Much of Nick’s research in the criminal justice health sector has involved developing relations with regional and national stakeholders across public, private and third sector agencies, and with colleagues at other UK universities. He is particularly interested in working with hard-to-reach groups, sometimes described as ‘challenging’ or ‘vulnerable’, including male and female young offenders, older prisoners, sex offenders and foreign national prisoners, across different provider organisations. A key objective of Nick’s work has been to explore, explain and tackle health and social inequality. His current research is seeking to involve people in the criminal and youth justice systems in peer led research mentoring and advocacy.?

Emma Bird is a Senior Lecturer in Public Health at the University of the West of England (UWE), Bristol. Emma obtained a BSc in Psychology (University of Liverpool, 2008) and was awarded an MSc in Health Psychology, with Distinction, from UWE in 2010. Emma joined the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences at UWE in 2010 as a researcher and was appointed as Senior Lecturer in 2014.

Emma′s research interests are wide-ranging, although she is particularly interested in how the environment may influence health behaviour and health behaviour change. Recent and current research projects include:

Paul Pilkington is a Senior Lecturer in Public Health in the Department of Health and Social Sciences, Faculty of Health and Applied Sciences.

The theme advances research across the university on issues relating to healthy and sustainable environments, bringing together researchers from public health with those across the university and beyond.

Taking a socio-ecological approach to public health, Paul’s research interests centre on how the promotion of healthy and sustainable environments can impact on population level health and wellbeing. Paul has a particular interest in the relationship between the built environment and health, particularly issues relating to road safety (measures to reduce danger in the road environment) and spatial planning (the better consideration of health in the planning process).

Paul is an experienced teacher, and contributes to teaching on the highly successful MSc Public Health, and the Specialist Community Public Health Nursing programme, as well as other courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels across the university.

Paul is a Specialty Tutor on the Public Health Specialty Training Programme in the South West, leading the development and management of specialty training provision at UWE. He is also an Academic Supervisor, member of the Regional Training Committee, and an Assessor on the National Public Health Specialty Training Assessment Centre.

Paul is a reviewer for several international peer-reviewed journals, including Public Health, Journal of Public Health, Journal of Transport and Health, and Injury Prevention. Paul is also a member of the SHINE Health Integration Team in Bristol.

Paul is Co-Primary Investigator in a major new project, funded by the Wellcome Trust, entitled Moving health and sustainability upstream into strategic urban development decision making.

Right of withdrawal

Instructions for revocation

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.

You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.

We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry

The revocation right is not available for contracts

for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
