Synopsis

Evidence-based practice is one of the driving forces in current healthcare practice. Whilst most occupational therapists acknowledge the need for research and the need for an evidence-based practice approach to interventions, many therapists admit that their grasp of research is limited and therefore they tend to avoid reading research papers and dislike numbers and statistics. This book makes evidence-based practice accessible and relevant to occupational therapists, using examples from therapy practice.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

This is an excellent resource for people seeking an introduction to evidence–based practice (EBP).

A major strength of the book is that Taylor uses frequent examples to illustrate the information provided .Another strength of the book is the insight Taylor provides into a range of relevant EBP resources.

I would highly recommend this book as an introductory practical text providing an excellent launching pad for those wishing to explore and use EBP principles.
Australian Occupational Therapy Journal

I would just like to commend you on your excellent book . . . I have spoken to many of my fellow students who agree [that it has been] written in such an easy to understand format [that] we consider this to be one of our bibles! There should be no excuse for not passing the research module!
