Full Description
The Scientific Basis of Well-being, comprises of three books that examines the interlink between physical and emotional well-being. This volume, Biological Measures of Well-Being is organized into four distinct sections. The first section introduces the reader to the correlates between well-being with environment, economic status, and biological measures. The second section outlines the blood and body fluids as biological correlates of well-being. The third section reviews the physiology and imaging as biological correlates of well-being. The fourth discuss the genetic correlates of well-being. Written by international experts in the field, this book will be the single source researchers and clinicians to understand well-being and their interlink with biological measures.
