Chapters showcase a range of theoretical approaches to health communication skilfully linked by the editors Introductory and Concluding chapters. Together they provide the basis for a theoretical toolkit for the development of actionable understandings of the processes through which abstract scientific knowledge is communicated to real people in real contexts and the social and psychological factors that mediate the success of a communication. It presents a compelling vision of an approach that is deeply rooted in African scholarship.
