Springer Sedentary Behaviour Epidemiology Textbook

Sedentary Behaviour Epidemiology by Springer provides a comprehensive look at the growing global challenge of inactive lifestyles. As modern technological advances change how we live and work, many people now spend long periods in environments that encourage prolonged sedentary behaviour. This book examines the origins, determinants, and the actual magnitude of this widespread issue. While the link between inadequate exercise and poor health is well-documented, recent research has identified sedentary behaviour itself as a specific risk factor for many chronic diseases and various health conditions. This text offers in-depth solutions and academic insights for tackling these modern health risks. It serves as a vital resource for understanding how environmental changes impact public health and how to address the rising prevalence of inactivity in contemporary society.
