"This is a wide-ranging and much needed re-invigoration of key debates and concerns in critical health psychology. The collection situates the field as a transdisciplinary endeavour, and offers a thoughtful invitation for continued critical engagement with health, illness and human wellbeing. Critical Health Psychology will be valuable for health psychology students and qualitative health researchers within, and beyond, the discipline's bounds." - Elizabeth Peel, University of Worcester, UK. "This second edition of Critical Health Psychology extends the strengths of the first. The chapters offer an accessible mapping of the terrain of Critical Health Psychology today. Being truly international in nature, this text is at the cutting edge of issues for critical health psychologists that examine key areas with both depth and breadth, considering topics, methods, contexts and challenges. A must read for scholars at all levels across social science and health disciplines." - Abigail Locke, University of Huddersfield, UK "When originally published this book was ground-breaking in offering a new approach to health psychology. In this revised and extended edition new ideas are introduced from both inside and outside the field of health psychology which considerably expands the debate about theories and methods. I particularly welcome the attention given to the use of narrative theory within health psychology and hope that it encourages further reassessment of the dominant approaches within the field." - Ad Kaptein, Professor of Medical Psychology, Leiden University Medical Centre, Netherlands
