Summary
In the years since the first edition of this book, important developments have taken place in the rehabilitation field. Major advances have occurred on medical and technological fronts, and landmark legislation has embodied some of the best ideas of modern rehabilitation. The title of the original edition, Physical disability--A Psychological Approach, has been slightly altered in the present revision. The phrase "a psychosocial approach" is preferred because the book examines problems in terms of the individual in relation to the social environment. Concepts discussed in the earlier edition are developed further and issues are addressed. The volume strives to contribute knowledge and understanding that will lead to constructive views of life with a disability. Technical language has been kept to a minimum in the hope that readers of varying backgrounds, including students and professionals, individuals who have a disability, and the concerned general public will find the book as a whole, or sections therein, of value.
