| Occupational Therapy Without Borders - Learning From The Spirit of Survivors challenges occupational therapists, to more fully realize the profession's social vision of a more just society where disability, old age, and other marginalizing conditions and experiences are addressed by involving people in helping themselves to (re)gain the capacity and power to construct their own destinies through their participation in daily life. |

| This New Edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the role and work of the occupational therapist with regard to physical illness or disability. The aim of the text is to link OT theory with day-to-day practice. The book is designed to meet the needs of today's students but it is also recognised that many qualified OTs use the book for reference and the book has been designed and structured to make it easy to use by those who want to dip into it for quick reference as well as by the student. |

| The child has trouble playing with other children, because they do not realize when they are causing him discomfort. Games like tag may bring him agony. The child reacts not only to actual touch, but also to the fear that someone might touch him. Being touched from behind or when one cannot anticipate the touch is especially threatening, and so making the tactilely defensive child wait in line with other children is just inviting an incident. |

| Cheryl Mattingly's ethnography of the practice of occupational therapy in a North American hospital investigates the complex interconnections between narrative and experience in clinical work. Viewing the world of disability as a socially constructed experience, it presents fascinatingly detailed case studies of clinical interactions between occupational therapists and patients. Moving and sophisticated, this book is an innovative contribution to the study of modern institutions and to anthropological theory. |
