Designing Effective Health Messages brings the perspective of advertisers to the broader health communication world. It gives straightforward overviews of relevant health communication theories, a discussion of principles of visual communication, and guidelines for plain language and clear communication.
Designing Effective Health Messages is divided into three sections:
- Section 1 provides the tools needed to design more effective health communication campaigns.
- Section 2 discusses the traditional model of health communication campaign development, execution, and evaluation.
- Section 3 uses a series of case studies to show how the authors have put these practices into action to solve real world health communication problems.
