Description
Book SynopsisThis book defines the state of scientific research focused on the development, experimental evaluation, and effective implementation of technology-based therapeutic tools targeting behavioral health. Written by an expert interdisciplinary group of authors, Behavioral Health Care and Technology defines the opportunity for science-based technology to transform models of behavioral health care.
Trade ReviewKudos to Marsch, Lord, and Dallery for a thoughtful interdisciplinary collection that bridges the disconnect between theoretical and practical aspects of technology use to improve behaviors related to critical health issues in the US and globally. * Patricia Mechael, Columbia University *
For those who purchase this book, I would not recommend letting it gather dust on the bookshelf. In a similar vein, I hope that the editors have already begun work on the second edition, because like our cellular devices, this book will be history before we know it. * H. Russell Searight, PsycCRITIQUES *
This book would be of interest to both researchers and clinicians from a wide variety of disciplines with a shared interest in behavioural healthcare and technology... a useful handbook for introducing this exceptionally interesting topic area. * Sara Simblett, Journal of Mental Health *
