Interesting book Bought this textbook for a graduate level class. Very detailed on various topics related to health behavior. Could be written at a different reading level, though. Overall, nice book. Kindle version is easier to read.Quite dry I just can’t get into this book which is not good since my class uses it heavily.Worth keeping If you plan a career in public health, this is the kind of useful and comprehensive textbook that you'll want to keep rather than selling, and refer to it from time to time. It is worth it.
