Social Neuroscience and Public Health Foundations for the Science of Chronic Disease Prevention /

Traditionally, neuroscience and public health have been considered strange bedfellows. �Now a new collection of studies shows the two fields �as logical collaborators with major potential for the evolution of both fields. Social Neuroscience and Public Health assembles current theoretical viewpoints...
