This is an excellent book for health practitioners preparing UKPHR portfolios. Each chapter is mapped against the skills and career framework, and practitioner standards. The activities, case studies and comments set the framework and standards within a practical context. For those practitioners not preparing portfolios this is a useful book taking students from the meaning of health and wellbeing to the importance of epidemiological evidence to support health improvement initiatives.
