Health Psychology:biopsychosocial..-pkg Book

I actually found this book to be quite interesting even though it is a bit dated at times. Like in the case of when it gives examples of case studies that have been conducted, they're anything from the 1960's to 1990's, which can mean that some of the information that your reading isn't accurate or even correct anymore. However the text overall is written in a way which is easy to read and understand/absorve. It accomplishes presenting information, which some people could get easily confused over, into blocks of information that can be easily read but not come across as being patronizing or condescending in manner. I actually found it rather interesting, and at times funny, to compare what was thought to be fact or true of an idea/proposal to what we know of it today. Some of the advances in medicine/health ideals have really come a long way in a relatively short time, and reading this book made me really realise just how much. I also found it intriguing how medicine and health care differ from the US to the UK, as this is a textbook by an American University for the American healthcare system, it made me appericate a bit more how I myself living in the UK have the NHS and associated healthcare system at my disposal. Overall this book was well written but the main drawback of it is that its so dated really, but still an interesting read.
