The third edition of this guide on community health education practices has been expanded to include the impact of the Internet on these methods, and the growing need for professionalism in the field of health educators. Bensley (Western Michigan U.) and Brookins-Fisher (Central Michigan U.) edit these contributions to underline the need for focused strategies when it comes to dispensing health information to communities, and show future practitioners how to select print materials, work with the media, initiate support groups, build coalitions and even market the idea of better health. A companion website is offered to provide additional resources, including PowerPoint presentations, web links and a glossary of terms. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
