Foundations of Health Service Psychology describes a comprehensive science-based approach to the clinical practice of psychology. It systematically applies recent scientific advances in understanding human psychology to updating conceptual frameworks used in professional psychology education and practice. The new edition includes significant elaboration on recent research; neuro- and behavioral science research regarding many aspects of cognition, emotion, and behavior have strengthened considerably over the past decade as has the role of evolutionary theory for understanding why humans are "designed" the way we are. The movement toward integrated primary care has also advanced considerably. These and other topics are updated significantly in this new edition. The new edition is also reorganized to streamline the presentation.
