This book presents a new conceptual model of practice in occupational therapy that differs from current theories. The model is based on the metaphor of a river that stands for the meanings of life, and is the first conceptual model from outside the West. It is easy to comprehend, simple and effective.
- A 'must-read' for all students of occupational therapy
- The first substantial work in occupational therapy from outside of the Western world
- Introduces an Eastern perspective on matters of theory and culture in occupational therapy
- Eight case studies, four from Western practice contexts and four from the East
- Developed by clinicians and practitioners for their peers
- Questions the cultural boundaries of occupational therapy, its knowledge (epistemiology), theory and practice. It puts the reader in touch with the cultural nature of self, client and profession
- Enables readers to develop critical analysis skills for examining matters of theory and culture, as opposed to learning theory as 'recipes'
