Summary

This Fourth Edition presents the major ideas which form the core knowledge, skills, and attitudes of the occupational therapy profession today by analyzing conceptual (theoretical) and practice (application) models. The models are related to both the practice of occupational therapy and the process of delivering occupational therapy services. Seven existing models and eight new and developing models are presented, along with a historical background of the major concepts, and expanded case studies.
