This volume highlights the importance of two key factors in health... awareness and action. Both individuals and communities need to be aware of the many influences on health and balance them as they work toward better health. The authors hope to challenge students to think of themselves as agents of change. The book is divided into six parts. Part 1, Mind and Body, highlights the importance of mental health and physical health and their influence on overall well-being. Part 2, Your Lifestyle and Health highlights the connection between lifestyle choices and health. Part 3, Your Health at Risk, addresses personal choices that may lead to health risks. Part 4, Your Relationships and Sexuality, focuses on the role that relationships and sexuality play in health. Part 5, Challenges to Your Health, highlights forces that threaten the well-being of individuals, neighborhoods, society, and our planet. Part 6, Protecting Your Health, explores diseases and health care choices...issues that affect all people at some time in their lives.
