5 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW! "This is an extraordinarily thorough, useful book. It manages to summarize numerous topics, many of which are not a part of a traditional medical curriculum, in concise, relevant chapters. Physicians who do not understand the dynamics behind the doctor-patient relationship usually end up being poor doctors, and this book reviews the many behavioral issues that patients have that can affect this relationship. This is a very welcome addition to the medical education literature, and should be required reading for all practicing clinicians."--Doody's Review Service Behavioral Medicine delivers practical coverage of behavioral and interactional issues that occur between provider and patient in everyday clinical practice. You will learn how to deliver bad news, how to conduct an effective patient interview, how to clinically manage behavioral issues in the dying patient, the principles of medical professionalism, behavioral issues in men's and women's health, and much more. Features: Thorough but practical discussion of the scope of the physician-patient relationship Includes extensive use of cases and clinical vignettes Complete coverage of medical disorders that influence both physician and patient behavior in clinical practice

Excellent textbook choice for beginning students in health care. Wide range of biobehavioral topics, clinical application with case studies.Nancy Jo Bush, RN, MN, MA, NPAssistant Clinical ProfessorUCLA School of Nursing

I picked up this book for my clinical psychology course at Palmer College of Chiropractic West. It has been a good resource for learning about different ways to deal with all kinds of people that may be coming into the clinic. The book is written in a style that makes it interesting and easy to read. I recommend this book to anyone in the healthcare field looking for information concerning the interview with the patient, working with specific populations (such as geriatrics or pediatrics), health-related behavior (such as Obesity), and mental/behavioral disorders.

I was required to purchase this book for a class and would not recommend it to anyone. It's boring covers things you would hope are common sense. If you have to buy this book try and get a used copy. If you are looking for a real guide for clinical practice, look elsewhere.

It was on time and the appropriate edition as expected. Was a pleasure doing business with this company. I would use them again.

THANK YOU!!!!!!
