“This is an excellent reference for all occupational therapists. It provides an extensive overview of the concepts of person, environment, occupation, and occupational performance. It is helpful to have the PEOP theoretical framework guiding the book, and it improves application and comprehension of the use of theory in practice. This much-needed update includes a variety of new topics and revisions to reflect modern practice.” Doody's Book Review Service
