⭐ Easy to read. Makes understanding health behavior theories easy.

⭐ Lots of information and I am happy I rented it out for the semester

⭐ This book is gobbledegook. It is confusing, disorganized and full of typos. If you are taking a course and this is the textbook do not take that course.

⭐ After taking several health behavior classes focused on theory, I would say this is the worst book I’ve ever read on health behavior theory. It’s a very hard read to get through because it’s not well written, it does not mesh with the current literature on all theories, and it over-emphasizes some very odd examples. Application is important, but by the 5th example, it’s redundant. If this is for a class, rent it, do NOT buy it. Trust me, you will never use it again. If this is for your own information on behavior health theories, DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. It will not be helpful for you, and I would definitely argue how it presents at least one of the theories it includes.

⭐ This book has average- quality basic information on the theories of behavior change, but the sheer number of typos and instances of poor grammar make it unbearable to read. If you’re buying this, you’re probably required to for a class, but be aware that it is even more of a waste of money than are most overpriced textbook purchases.

⭐ This is my first review on textbooks. There are just so many textbooks you need to buy as a grad student, but only so few one might actually enjoy while reading/making notes. This is one of those few for me. Very easy to read and follow. I like how authors always had multiple examples to demonstrate how theories and concepts can be applied in each of the chapters. Good textbook!

⭐ good book for public health people! very useful

⭐ School project. thanks AA ++

⭐ Easily one of the worst textbooks I have ever read. The author has no idea how to write clearly or succinctly. This entire book could probably be summed up in 3-4 chapters if he wasn’t going on and on about nothing. Please, don’t buy this book unless you’re required to.

⭐ came as described.
