Rezensionen

"An interesting aspect reflected upon by the author is the
difference in the clinical reasoning of occupational therapists
when treating those from their culture and when practicing in a
setting that is ethnically or linguistically different from their
own. The geographical context of New Zealand, used in the
example, is an ethnically diverse country where health care is
provided within a mixed public/private system. Cross-
cultural factors are addressed in the chapter discussing therapy
services for Maori clients in New Zeland. . . Many different
aspects of clinical reasoning are covered in this book that would
interest an advanced student." (Canadian Journal of
Occupational Therapy Article, 1 August 2013)
