Danny Wedding, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Missouri-Columbia, is joined as editor by Margaret L. Stuber, MD, Professor of Psychiatry at UCLA for this edition. Under their careful guidance and editing, around 40 leading educators from major medical faculties have contributed to produce the most comprehensible and didactically well-designed text in its field.
Unique to Behavior and Medicine, for instance, is the use of hundreds of works of art, poetry, and aphorisms to provoke thought and interest and to illuminate the most important points. It’s main features are:
- Practical, clinical emphasis, based around the core topics recommended by the Institute of Medicine
- Comprehensive, trustworthy, and up-to-date
- Competitive price compared to other much less comprehensive, question-and-answer-type, course review works
- Written and carefully edited by leading educators at major medical faculties
- Numerous case examples, tables, charts, and boxes for quick access to information
- Learning and exam aids, such as sample USMLE review questions
- New chapters on: physician well-being; working with other professionals, organizations, and communities; facilitating health behavior change; communicating with patients; management of difficult patients; culturally competent healthcare; impact of social inequalities; and economics and health
