Description
Pedretti's Occupational Therapy Skills for Physical Dysfunction gives a comprehensive, in-depth overview of occupational therapy history
and theory, the occupational therapy process and practice, evaluation and intervention in the occupational performance areas, performance
skills and client factors, implementation of intervention, and intervention applications. The text focuses on occupation-based practice
in the context of working with physical disabilities, and takes a client-centered approach. New chapters and expert contributors bring
a fresh approach to the text. New content on motor control and learning, prevention, and cultural diversity is integrated throughout.
