?The wealth of information...within this book can help all of us in the field fine-tune the effectiveness of strategies and interventions designed to improve health-related behaviors. This book is definitely on my list as one of the top five `big picture theoretical framework' resources for the serious public health professional.? (American Journal of Health Promotion)

?This edited volume does an admirable job of bridging the gap between theory and practice and providing examples of multiple levels of analysis—individual, group, organizational, and community...It is a valuable resource.?

?Frequently, in my role as a health educator and researcher, I have been asked by clinicians to recommAnd the reading or approach to use on how to change behavior. I have explained that it depAnds on one's theoretical perspective about health behavior and that no single study or approach has been proven to be clearly superior to another. In the future, however, I will be able to refer those who ask to the book by Glanz, Lewis, and Rimer.?
