It is a cross-disciplinary course public health, medical sociology, health psychology, medical anthropology and thus there are many ways to teach the course based on a particular instructor's perspective.

The authors are planning to do a major revision based on reviews they have collected and the reviews we have collected. We believe the revised edition will essentially be a new text based on rich feedback. They will include new theory, new cases, new research, and a rich ancillary package. They will also reduce the frameworks presented to make the book more readable to students.
