Written by Steven D. Taff, PhD, OTR/L, FNAP, FAOTA, this comprehensive book provides an in-depth exploration of the most influential philosophical movements from past to present and their profound impact on occupational therapy education, research, and practice.
The book fills a significant gap in existing occupational therapy literature by delving into the major thinkers and concepts of numerous philosophical movements, examining their implications, and demonstrating how they can inform and enrich the field.
Taff, along with a team of expert chapter authors, argues that the vital points of human existence are found not only in science but also in philosophy. They contend that occupational therapy should incorporate a clearly articulated philosophical perspective into its evidence-based and measurement-driven paradigm.
Each chapter provides a concise description of a specific philosophical movement, outlines its key thinkers and concepts, and ultimately summarizes the implications for occupational therapy education, research, and practice.
Philosophy and Occupational Therapy: Informing Education, Research, and Practice is an indispensable book for occupational therapy educators, researchers, and clinicians. It aims to enrich the teaching-learning process, ground research with depth and clarity, and spark meaningful discussions among professionals about reviving the use of philosophy in current occupational therapy practice.
By bridging the gap between philosophy and occupational therapy, this book has the potential to transform the way occupational therapy is understood, taught, and practiced.
