Análisis teórico y experimental en psicología y salud
“Mente sana en cuerpo sano” es un ideal que se ha promovido por generaciones y que deja en claro la estrecha relación que existe entre la psicología y la salud. Con el fin de abonar al desarrollo del campo del conocimiento sobre la vinculación entre estos dos componentes vitales del ser humano, esta obra presenta diversos trabajos teóricos y experimentales contemporáneos desarrollados en México en el campo de la psicología conductual.
