Reviews

This authoritative and well-written volume compiles an outstanding array of edited chapters on youngsters' acceptance of medical and other health-related regimens, such as dieting and exercise....A primary strength of this volume is the extent of clear and critical discussions of the meanings of compliance, as well as of health and illness and related terms such as wellness....The editors and authors all have strong reputations in their areas. The chapters are written knowledgeably and often in an appropriately impassioned way....It will be of enormous value to human service professionals, researchers, and students in several areas, including dentistry, health education, health promotion, health psychology, medical sociology, medicine, nursing, pediatrics, and social work. -Contemporary Psychology.
