5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2013

This book provided the entrance into my Master's in Public Heath program and I immediately knew that this program was perfect for me. The book discussed the bare realities of public health behavior and expressed proven methods to implement change and purposefully evaluate it. It also provides many useful resources. Great read!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good choice to clarify Health Behavior models
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2014

I found this book helpful in clarifying the development and practice of Health Behavior models. I am new to the study of Health Behaviors and found the Glanzer test too academic to get a good grasp of the concepts. This book (Essentials)***not the other Edberg book (Essential Readings) really helped me to better understand the concepts and the application of the models in the field.

This is a great book and easy to read. I like how the chapters are broken up making it easy to understand each theory. I also like the real-world examples incorporated into each chapter which allows for a better understanding of how each theory has or can be used.

I purchased this textbook for one of the courses I am currently taking. I find this book to be concise and interesting to read. The chapters are of a reasonable length and when an assignment is given to read two or three chapters it is doable.

This book is written in a way that is unconventional for most textbooks. It's easy to read and uses plenty of stories and scenarios to help bring readers in closer to the content. A+
