Occupational Therapy without Borders: Learning From The Spirit of Survivors Paperback – 17 December 2004

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 8 ratings

There is a newer edition of this item:

This landmark text 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. The book explores the new concept of occupational apartheid - the separation between those who have meaningful, useful occupations and those who are deprived of or isolated from occupation, or who are otherwise constrained in their daily life. All royalties from this book will go to a special fund that support the initiatives of "Spirit of Survivors - Occupational Therapy Without Borders". Companion volume also available - "Occupational Therapies without Borders, Volume 2": towards an ecology of occupation-based practice (9780702031038).

Bought this for a current OT student based on the recommendation of an OT prof.. The student found it very useful for discovering the scope of applications an OT degree provides. The book offers practical examples and information on practicing OT in the US and foreign lands.
