tailieunhanh - Health promotion Disciplines and diversity

‘Health Promotion’ is rapidly establishing itself as an important force within the ‘New Public Health’, itself an important feature of contemporary approaches to health and health care provision. Whilst debates have raged around definitions of health promotion and the differences between health promotion and health education, there has been little concern for the nature of the knowledge base being drawn upon by health promoters and researchers discussing such topics. This neglect is curious considering the wealth of new conceptual development emerging in and around the health promotion field | HEALTH PROMOTION Health promotion This is the first book as such in the field of health promotion that attempts to trace the disciplinary roots of the subject. With many practical examples of applied theory it relates the theoretical with the practical to form an essential reference for academics and practitioners alike. In terms of theoretical development health promotion is at a crossroads. Over the last twenty years or so it has emerged from its roots in public health and health education to become a central force in the new public health movement. This has been accompanied by a proliferation in papers concerned with research theory and the discipline of health promotion such that it now demands to be recognized as an emerging and discrete discipline. This book debates whether it has yet reached a stage of independence from its disciplinary roots or if it is in fact still a product of a multi-disciplinary base. Contributions from experts in the fields of psychology sociology education and epidemiology the primary feeder disciplines explain how concepts and theories from these academic fields have helped to shape health promotion theory whilst contributors from the secondary feeder disciplines of economics philosophy social policy communications and social marketing argue that their disciplines offer further conceptual bases for the academic development of health promotion.
