Zusatztext This book serves as a significant contribution to the study of both relationships and health... I would highly recommend Interpersonal Relationships and Health to relationship and health scientists. The book should serve as a motivation to more researchers to integrate relationship science with the study of health behavior. Additionally, it may prompt more collaboration between social and clinical researchers when studying relationships and health. Much can be learned by bridging these two important perspectives on health. Informationen zum Autor Christopher R.
