Surpassing its 40th year and in its 8th Edition, Occupational Therapy for Physical Dysfunction is highly regarded as a foundational text for educational programs and practitioners. The purpose of the text is to provide comprehensive instruction to inform best practice for adults with physical dysfunction, to which it hits the mark. The 6-section format of the text has been retained, though the present edition leads readers though a slightly different organization. Beginning with Occupational Function, this section covers foundations/tenants of occupational therapy, clinical reasoning, practice skills, and documentation. It then leads to Assessment & Intervention, specifically focusing on 11 areas of function to which adults with physical disabilities may experience challenges. Rehabilitation Technology includes orthoses fabrication, modalities, wheelchairs, and assistive technology. Restoration of Independent and Community Living Roles focuses on improving participation in activities of daily living, roles, functional mobility, driving, and community mobility. Frames of Reference includes theoretical principles, indicators of function/dysfunction, and discusses the concept of change via Biomechanical, Rehabilitation, and Motor Learning and Task-Oriented Approaches. Finally, Guidelines, introduces specific evaluations and treatments for the most common physical disability diagnoses identified in practice.
