Here it is. The latest update for physical disability science within occupational therapy. Whether you are a current student in need of another source, or an experienced practitioner with a desire to go back and check the basics. This updated book will have more than one topic to get you up to speed. I love it, and frequently reference it. It's also nice to know that added emphasis is placed on realistic case studys throughout the book.Enjoy!!Derek
Wow, this book has it all. Allen's Cognitive Levels, RLAS Scale, GCS Scale, and all kinds of helpful stuff. You could probably find anything you needed in here as far as OT goes... ROM measurements, tx approaches, everything! I've only cracked the surface of it and I can tell this book will help you on the exams better than any of the others.
This book is big and not very fun to carry around, but I use it for referencing all the time. It's got great information and covers almost any topic or subject you'll need to know about occupational therapy. I would highly recommend it!
Great Text - informative and easy to read!!! My only complaint is that it's not available as an eBook. It's huge and doesn't transport easily. I'd love to be able to take it with me so that I could reference/read as I need to!
This book almost singlehandedly got me through OT school. It's got everything you'll need to know to become an effective and ethical therapist (or in my case, therapist assistant). I could go on and on about the different topics and therapeutic techniques covered, or I could just tell you what you were looking for in the first place.This is a solid book that will become your best friend if you are in OT school (and also long after you graduate). You won't regret buying it.
This book allows you to get a good visual understanding on how physical dysfunction is effected by injury in the brain. It is a great compliment reading to my neuro text.
This book is a great resource for all students studying in Occupational therapy. It will not only continue to be source while being in school, but it can be resourceful beyond the schooling.
