Since its first edition in 2005, Occupational Therapies Without Borders has been a key text in many of the world’s leading occupational therapy education programs. It focuses on how occupational therapists can affect positive societal change through nurturing participation parity and engagement in occupation.
This book comprehensively covers theory, methodology and practice in the context of working with different cultures and geographies. It explores occupational therapy and social class, race, disability, marginality and sexuality from a critical theory perspective, and discusses practical approaches.
The book has been fully revised to reflect emerging concerns for occupational therapy in different and health and social systems globally. It will motivate undergraduate and postgraduate occupational therapy students to explore the transformative potential of their practice.
