Principles of Health Education and Promotion
Revision of: Principles and foundations of health promotion and education. 2018. Seventh edition.
Health education and health promotion
This book is a comprehensive resource for theory, research and action in health education and health promotion. The authors describe strategies and actions for health education and health promotion based on theories for understanding, predicting and changing behavioural, social and environmental determinants of health. The book also offers a conceptual framework for planning, evaluation and research and discusses ethical issues in health promotion. Health education and health promotion is addressed to bachelor and masters students, scholars, practitioners, policymakers and change managers. It offers a useful guide for a variety of professional and volunteer organisations and their workers, such as health service managers and environmental health officers, community nurses and dieticians, midwives and paediatricians, dentists, general practitioners, epidemiologists as well as psychologists, sociologists and social workers. This is a useful guide for all those who carry the field close to their heart and who are willing to invest in the promotion of health.
Basic Guide to Oral Health Education and Promotion
The Basic Guide to Oral Health Education and Promotion is the step by step course companion for dental nurses studying for the Certificate in Oral Health Education. In addition it is an invaluable resource for other members of the dental team and health professionals involved in educating and promoting oral health to patients and the wider general public. Each chapter looks at a different aspect of oral health education and promotion in line with the NEBDN syllabus, yet is written in logical sequence for the benefit of those not studying the exam and those in professions other than dental nursing. Topics covered include dental structures, anatomy and physiology, oral diseases and prevention, the principles of education, oral health and society, promoting oral health in the 21st century, patient communication, project planning and workplace assignments.

This fourth edition of the classic book, Health Behavior and Health Education: Theory, Research, and Practice provides a comprehensive, highly accessible, and in-depth analysis of health behavior theories that are most relevant to health education. This essential resource includes the most current information on theory, research, and practice at individual, interpersonal, and community and group levels. This edition includes substantial new content on current and emerging theories of health communication, e-health, culturally diverse communities, health promotion, the impact of stress, the importance of networks and community, social marketing, and evaluation.
Health Education
The skills necessary to plan and deliver efficient health education programs are fundamentally the same, whether it's in a classroom, workplace, hospital, or community. Health Education: Creating Strategies for School & Community Health, Third Edition provides the tools to make appropriate programming decisions based on the needs of the clients and the educational settings. It encourages the systematic development of sound, effective, and appropriate presentation methods and demonstrates the evolving state of health education. The philosophy presented in this text is based on the premise that the core of health education is the process of health education. It is a must-have resource for health education methods courses.
Health Education
It could be said with some justification that the task of education is to safe guard people's right to learn about important aspects of human culture and experience. Since health and illness occupy a prominent place in our everyday experience, it might reasonably be argued that everyone is entitled to share whatever insights we possess into the state of being healthy and to benefit from what might be done to prevent and treat disease and discomfort. Health education's role in such an endeavour would be to create the necessary under standing. No other justification would be needed. In recent years, however, questions have been posed with increasing insistence and urgency about efficiency - both about education in general and health education in particular. We can be certain that such enquiries about effectiveness do not reflect a greater concern to know whether or not the population is better educated: they stem from more utilitarian motives. It is apparent, even to the casual observer, that economic growth and productivity have become a central preoccupation in contemporary Britain.
Health Education
Since the first edition of this book was published, in 1990, health promotion has been enjoying an increasingly high profile both nationally and internationally. For this new edition, many chapters have been extensively revised or rewritten to take account of recent developments; new issues about health education are discussed and, as a result, the book provides a more comprehensive and critical review of health promotion and its relationship with health education.
Theoretical Foundations of Health Education and Health Promotion
"Introduces students to common theories from behavioral and social sciences that are currently being used in health education and promotion. Each discussion of theory is accompanied by a practical skill-building activity in the context of planning and evaluation and a set of application questions that will assist the student in mastering the application of the theory."--
