I found this book very useful for me, as an occupational therapist working with patients with brain damage.The functional approach of this book is more useful for O.Ts than other books that I read before, written by neuropsychologists.I recommend this book for all O.Ts working with patients with cognitive and perceptual deficits.
Any person working in the Neuro-Rehabilitation field especially Occupational Therapists should have this book. It is more than a reference or a guide, this book provides insight and cleaver strategies to understand what might be going on cognitively and perceptually with a client who has an upper motor lesion. The book ties in neurology and function.
Excellent source of information regarding assessments and treatments as well as good source of general knowledge in a consized format.
