Among strategies for effectively delivering high-quality health care, communication may be the most vital. Health communication plays a key role in informing, motivating, and ultimately achieving optimal health behaviours. The Oxford Handbook of Health Communication, Behavior Change, and Treatment Adherence brings together leading scientists and clinicians to review current research and clinical developments in this important area. The volume provides a synthesis of cutting-edge empirical research and demonstrably effective applications that are solidly grounded in theory.
