The influence of culture on illness, health and rehabilitation is therefore very important. Despite this, most lower level health psychology texts skim over these differences and assume our traditional biomedical approach will be appropriate for all. In this completely revised and updated edition of a groundbreaking book, Malcolm MacLachlan redresses the balance by showing how social and cultural aspects interact with the purely physical: from assessment and treatment all the way through to effects on rehabilitation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"...an excellent text for qualified nurses...offers far more than an overview...\" (\u003ci\u003eNursing Standard\u003c\/i\u003e, August 2006)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Author.  \u003cp\u003eCritical acclaim for the First Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface to the First Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface to the Second Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
