The impact of Mackelprang and Salsgiver's seminal work-along with that of the researchers and writers that followed-resulted in our contemporary approach to rehabilitation and the emphasis on services that move clients from dependency to independence. With this book, student will gain not only a prescription for professional assessment and practice, but also the necessary understanding of common issues those with disabilities face and the social contexts in which they live. -- from back cover ER -
