520 a| "Preface: Since the publication of the first edition of the Handbook of Health Psychology (Psychology Press, 2001), enormous progress has been made in the connections among biological, psychological, and social components of health, health behavior, and illness. More important, scholars in the field have expanded this tripartite model across even more levels of analysis, including cultural and macrosocial factors at one end and cellular factors at the other. Moreover, a new emphasis has been to translate research evidence in to practice and policy. The second edition of the handbook reflects these changes and is quite different from the first in terms of both approach and content. The 34 chapters are written by some of the top scholars in health psychology. Each author has taken seriously the task of providing a theoretical foundation, synthesizing and evaluating the empirical evidence, and contemplating how the state of the science can inform future research, clinical practice, and/or policy. The book maintains the first edition's framework of the biopsychosocial model, but the choice of topics reflects the advances that have been made in the field over the past quarter century. Specifically, this new edition adds sections on risk and protective factors for disease and on macro-level factors that affect health. We believe that this structure more closely reflects current scholarship in health psychology. The first section, "Overarching Frameworks and Paradigms," presents the central theories that inform many areas of research within the field. For example, the concept of allostatic load is a "newer" stress theory that emphasizes the interaction of biological and social systems and may explain the onset of many conditions"--Provided by publisher.;

Abstract	"Preface: Since the publication of the first edition of the Handbook of Health Psychology (Psychology Press, 2001), enormous progress has been made in the connections among biological, psychological, and social components of health, health behavior, and illness. More important, scholars in the field have expanded this tripartite model across even more levels of analysis, including cultural and macrosocial factors at one end and cellular factors at the other. Moreover, a new emphasis has been to translate research evidence in to practice and policy. The second edition of the handbook reflects these changes and is quite different from the first in terms of both approach and content. The 34 chapters are written by some of the top scholars in health psychology.
