dysfunction, this highly regarded text helps occupational therapy students

that guide students from initial evaluation to treatment to follow-up.

This updated Seventh Edition includes updated research, new activity

analysis case examples that clarify links to the OT framework, new

photos, new online videos, and a streamlined organization, which includes

three bonus chapters posted online.
