I just finished with this text and it was as previously reviewed, tedious to read. The authors define simple concepts and then just glance over more complex ones. As was already said, not a lot of citations in the reading. Lastly. the font in this text is extremely small making it even more difficult to read.

Used this book for an (aptly titled) Health Promotion Throughout the Lifespan course. The book has 25 chapters, almost all seemingly written by different authors. After reading the entirety of the book, it feels as if Edelman and Mandle were simply the people credited for slapping other people's works between two covers, without editing for continuity . While I understand that having multiple authors throughout is an acceptable practice when covering such a broad topic (you want an expert in each area giving their expertise), this book would consistently contradict itself from one chapter to another. The only example I can currently think of is the advisory on when a child can start sitting in the front seat of a car. Some areas suggested age 12, other chapters recommended 13. This can be problematic for a student when an exam comes along, and the professor is using the test bank from the text. Which chapter did the question and answer come from? A small example, but me and my classmates came up with several throughout the semester.
