Core Concepts in Health has maintained its leadership in the field of personal health education for more than 30 years. Since pioneering the concept of self-responsibility for personal health in 1976, millions of students have used this book to become active, informed participants in their own health care. To reflect Canadian instructors’ preferences, the chapter sequence has been re-ordered and content dealing with “Understanding Sexuality” (now Part Four) has been condensed and moved later in the text. In addition, the box program has been streamlined to avoid redundancies. The Canadian edition will be 21 chapters, two fewer than the US edition.
