The early chapters present the rationale for behavioral science in public health practice. Each subsequent chapter describes a theory or set of related theories in a concise and organized manner, with ample applications to public health practice.

Racial, ethnic, and economic disparities are highlighted throughout. The authors are experienced behavioral scientists with substantial experience teaching public health students"--
