WHO Regional Publications, European Series - 44: Health Promotion and Chronic Illness

Discovering a New Quality of Health

Meer over het boek

For people with chronic illness, the concept of health promotion is still in its infancy. What is it that enable some people to cope better than others? What kinds of supportive environments and personal skills make it possible for some individuals and some families to deal with severe health problems more easily than others? The collection of texts presented in this book explore answers to these questions and many others. They provide an overview and a scientific evaluation of some chronic conditions common to all industrialized countries: cancers, myocardial infarction and chronic pain. The book takes stock of medical progress and practice, yet goes much further in exploring new avenues to health. The authors give many examples of ways to enhance the wellbeing of those who have to live with chronic health problems. The "Ottawa charter for health promotion" is included in this volume.
