Summary
Health: The Basics sets the standard for teaching personal health and wellness from a behavior management perspective. With the Fifth Edition, the text continues to provide the cutting-edge information students need to make healthy decisions. Today's health research, issues, and trends are reflected throughout the thoroughly revised and updated content. Enhancements include expanded psychosocial health and personal fitness chapters, a new chapter on complementary and alternative medicine, extended coverage of cardiovascular disease and cancer, and the addition of three new feature boxes: Women's Health/Men's Health, New Horizons in Health, and Assess Yourself.
