What book/journal/website to look at? for what health psychology encompasses?

Im doing an assignment (1st yr student childrens nurse in the UK) on psychology I have to find what health psychology encompasses, I know what it encompasses but it has to be factual and found in a book, journal or reputable website (NHS,DH,RCN etc.) Any full titles or web addresses where I could find this??

Here is the Health Psychology Division for the American Psychological Association's Website:
http://www.health-psych.org/
They have a list of books, a brochure about health psychology, and some online resources.

The British Psychological Society also has a division of health psychology.
http://www.health-psychology.org.uk/
This page provides a good description of health psychology and what health psychologists do:
http://www.health-psychology.org.uk/menu...

Since these are both organizations that represent psychologists in each nation, I would consider them reputable.
