Provides an introduction to many of the theoretical perspectives on disability. This book aims to help readers challenge the taken-for-granted nature of traditional knowledge and assumptions within the rehabilitation, health and community care industries. It also encourages a more critical approach to the nature of rehabilitation.
It explores issues that are central to rehabilitation, such as the nature of the body, the idea of independence, the rehabilitation process, evidence-based practice and client-centred practice. Seeking always to ground theoretical ideas in the realities of every-day rehabilitation practice, and drawing from a wealth of research evidence, the book continually examines the implications of these perspectives for the education, practice, service delivery, research and theoretical development of the rehabilitation professions.Provides an accessible introduction to current theoretical perspectives on disability
Demonstrates how these theoretical perspectives can inform a practitioner's approach to rehabilitation
Relevant for all the rehabilitation and health care professions
