'I just couldn't stop blushing... It was awful!' It's the thing you dread most. You're at a party, giving a presentation, joining a new evening class or even meeting your online date in real life for the first time. You feel the warmth creeping up over their face - you know they've noticed, and now they'll think you're socially inept, or awkward, or nervous. The more embarrassed you feel, the more you blush.

However, a lifespan perspective has much to offer the health psychologist in the search for a more comprehensive understanding of health and illness. This book brings together European, American and Australian researchers whose interests in health psychology can be located within a lifespan context.
