Health Psychology is the Union of Medicine and Psychology. It's called Medical Psychology in the hospital. In the research laboratory it's Biological Psychology , and on the therapist's couch: Psychobiology. Although a relatively new discipline--Health Psychology borrows from long-standing traditional areas of medicine and psychology--it is widely accepted in America and abroad. With over 50 US and Canadian universities offering doctoral training in Health Psychology and the creation of special divisions for Health Psychology in both the American Psychological and the Canadian Psychological Associations, Health Psychology is bringing to the fore the latest research findings and clinical applications to advance understanding of how the mind and body interact

After four months of party haggling Austria has finally a new government: a coalition of the Freedom Party FPÖ led by the xenophobic populist Jörg Haider and the Christian Democrat ÖVP under the new chancellor Wolfgang Schüssel (ÖVP). The inclusion of Haider’s far-right Freedom Party has led to Austria’s international isolation. Alarmed by the violation of an unwritten taboo the EU’s prime ministers have downgraded relations with Vienna and many ministers from other European countries refuse to meet with their Austrian counterparts. Austria’s Federal president Thomas Klestil and chancellor Schüssel have tried to tranquilize the Community, but the triumphant FPÖ-leader Haider has made things even worse by pronouncing several offensive statements against the partner countries. The European Union is now in trouble, trying to handle its sanctions against Austria in a rational manner and without making a hero of the Austrian outlaw. On 29th February Haider has stepped down as FPÖ-chairman, but many fear that Austria’s most popular leader is only preparing for the chancellor’s office.
