What to expect from the new edition: · Full discussion on the impacts from Covid-19 on health strategy · Increased emphasis on upstream interventions rather than patient-centred, individualised (downstream) approaches · Increased internationalisation – more comparative examples and international perspectives prioritising northern Europe, Scandinavia and the US Health promotion is being taught to an increasingly diverse range of students, either because of background, future career plans or the increasing international student numbers. This book provides international examples, applicable to a range of health professions, to meet the needs of diverse cohorts. The international case studies provided online also mean that international students in the UK have access to cases that can be more relevant to their own countries. It can be a challenge understanding the ′softer side′ of health science, particularly understanding how to think outside an individual responsibility for Health promotion/public health. The focus of this book is setting out the process of planning, implementing and evaluating successful health programmes meaning that you are introduced to the ′softer side′ in an applied way - making it easier for you to see the importance of what you are studying.

Beginning with a critical appraisal of the concept itself, the second edition of Health Promotion: Planning and Strategies outlines models for defining `health promotion' and sets out the factors involved in planning health promotion programmes that work. Locating the principles and strategies of health promotion within an emerging sphere of multidisciplinary health, the authors show how these can be applied within a range of contexts and settings. In an attempt to bridge the gap that persists between ideological perspectives and practical implementations, they delve beyond the rhetoric of empowerment and show how it can be incorporated into practice. Focusing particularly on the synergistic relationship between policy and education, the book re-appraises the notion of health education - an idea which has become marginalised in recent years- and shows the fundamental importance of education in creating individual choice and generating effective advocacy for social change. The question of `evidence' is central to the text and the book examines methods of evaluation and the role it plays in creating more effective health promotion programmes. The new edition offers coverage of values and ethics; working with communities; the settings approach, and social marketing. It also provides students with a glossary of key terms. Internationally relevant and multidisciplinary, this is an essential text for students of health studies, health promotion, public health, interprofessional social care courses, and all healthcare professionals.

It could be said with some justification that the task of education is to safe guard people's right to learn about important aspects of human culture and experience. Since health and illness occupy a prominent place in our everyday experience, it might reasonably be argued that everyone is entitled to share whatever insights we possess into the state of being healthy and to benefit from what might be done to prevent and treat disease and discomfort. Health education's role in such an endeavour would be to create the necessary under standing. No other justification would be needed. In recent years, however, questions have been posed with increasing insistence and urgency about efficiency - both about education in general and health education in particular. We can be certain that such enquiries about effectiveness do not reflect a greater concern to know whether or not the population is better educated: they stem from more utilitarian motives. It is apparent, even to the casual observer, that economic growth and productivity have become a central preoccupation in contemporary Britain.
