Check out the recommended reading for Health Psychology
We are often asked to recommend some introductory reference books for new students on our courses. Here are some suggestions which provide a good introduction to the subject areas we teach and to our research interests.
It is not recommended that you buy, or even read, all of these if it adds financial or academic pressure prior to the course. We do encourage reading through a well-chosen few, which should give you some useful background material for the course if you feel you need it.
You should be able to access these books from our libraries when you arrive. In order to read any of the books which are available online, you will need to have registered for your online student account.
