Reviews

Dr. Lytle's extensive experience in designing, developing, and evaluating multilevel behavioral interventions is the foundation for this important and timely book for researchers and practitioners. She has been the lead on many successful interventions involving youth and adults, concerning multiple health problems and associated behaviors, and this has resulted in a framework based on science and achievement. Her clarity reflects this wealth of knowledge, and she gifts us with clear and cogent steps to making our communities healthier places.--Cheryl L. Perry, PhD, Professor Emerita, Department of Health Promotion and Behavioral Sciences, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston; School of Public Health, Austin Campus, Austin, TX, United States Leslie Lytle has written a practical guide for how to plan theoretically sound, creative, and effective policies and interventions to promote healthy behaviors. Concrete examples take the reader through the various steps of the process. The book is systematic and engaging--highly recommended! --Knut-Inge Klepp, PhD, Executive Director, Norwegian Institute of Public Health, Oslo, Norway This is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and practitioners. The step-wise process for creating, implementing, and evaluating multilevel interventions is clearly described and easy to follow. Dr. Lytle's decades long experience with designing and evaluating multilevel interventions is made evident through her practical guidance and applied intervention examples. --Jess Haines, PhD, MHSc, RD, Department of Family Relations and Applied Nutrition, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, Canada
