Health Psychology: An Introduction to Behavior and Health (with InfoTrac), Fifth Edition
Linda Brannon received her Ph.D. in human experimental psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and Jess Feist received his Ph.D. in counseling from the University of Kansas. Currently both Dr. Brannon and Dr. Feist are professors in the department of Psychology at McNeese State University in Lake Charles, Louisiana where they have been teaching since receiving their doctorates. After becoming interested in the emerging field of health psychology, Linda and Jess co-authored the first edition of this text in the 1980's, and have enjoyed expanding and developing their text along with the field for the next 20+ years. Both have areas of interest outside of health psychology, with Dr. Brannon authoring not only a text on gender but also co-authoring an introductory psychology text, while Dr. Feist, with his son Greg, has co-authored a text on personality.
