Full Description
The go-to guide for nearly 50 years for occupational therapists working with adults with visual, perceptual, and cognitive deficits after brain injury is back for a Fifth Edition.
Zoltan's Vision, Perception, and Cognition: Evaluation and Treatment of the Adult With Acquired Brain Injury, Fifth Edition maintains the core foundation laid in previous editions while drawing upon Drs. Tatiana A. Kaminsky and Janet M. Powell's 60-plus years combined of clinical, teaching, and research experience in adult neuro-based rehabilitation.
This best-selling text translates the available research and theory into application for practice. The result is a comprehensive, accessible, up-to-date, and evidence-informed textbook with a strong occupation-based focus, detailing occupational therapy evaluation and treatment practices for adults with visual, perceptual, and cognitive deficits after brain injury.
What's new in the Fifth Edition:
An emphasis on functional cognition, occupational focus, and changes in approaches to rehabilitation
Clinical examples from adult neurorehabilitation to ease understanding
Up-to-date evidence and everyday technology implementation
Tips for collaborating with a team of practitioners
New case examples
Included with the text are online supplemental materials for faculty use in the classroom.
Zoltan's Vision, Perception, and Cognition: Evaluation and Treatment of the Adult With Acquired Brain Injury, Fifth Edition includes key updates to stay current while maintaining the essence of its previous editions.
