Description:

In this creative and innovative approach to teaching us about health communication, Professor Parrott uses her own stories as well as those of family members and friends to illustrate, explain, and defend the six most important questions one must ask when talking about health. These six questions, as well as a proposed agenda for health communication in the future, are used as a method for defining, organizing, and reinforcing important health communication definitions, concepts, issues, and terms. The author uses first person to engage, motivate, and entertain the reader--the tone is that of a good, knowledgeable friend confiding in another rather than a renowned health communication scholar educating the less-informed. Parrott combines real-world examples and personal narratives with solid reasoning, historical facts, and statistical evidence; a general strength of the text is in her masterful ability to explain complex scientific constructs and medical terminology using simple but accurate and effective language. Her expertise in providing these interpretations for the reader further builds confidence in one's own abilities to actively participate in conversations about health with family members, teachers, medical practitioners, politicians, peers, friends, and others. The text is a must-read for any student, teacher, or scholar of health communication and a helpful resource for any individual interested in learning more about ways we can and should talk about health.
