Organized topically, this supplementary text looks at health psychology from a multicultural perspective, presenting theories and research findings based and focused on understudied groups.

As the field of health psychology continues to stretch and grow, it becomes increasingly more crucial to acknowledge that health factors vary between different ethnic groups. With this malleable text, split into ten chapters that stand independently from one another, author Michele K. Lewis has created a valuable tool that prepares students for a more diverse client group — and helps them understand the importance of their own cultural background in relation to health behaviors.
