摘要

'Life course development' is a multidisciplinary framework for the study of a person's life within structural, social and cultural contexts. This book considers this perspective and its use within occupational therapy intervention. It is described as an 'interactive text' which is intended to encourage readers to 'reflect actively and to think critically' about their work as health and social care professionals. The book is designed around a learning framework, which requires readers to consider their personal learning styles and to build on them through a series of learning tasks. Many of these tasks relate to a case study, which is set out in the first chapter of the book.
