Reviews

"All in all, The Oxford Handbook of Rehabilitation Psychology is an excellent reference textbook for rehabilitation psychologists and students of rehabilitation psychology... This handbook provides an excellent introduction to people with a variety of disabilities for the generalist psychologist. The text contributes detailed, and highly readable, state-of-the-art reviews pertaining to most of the topics related to medical-based rehabilitation with an
international perspective." -- Steven R. Pruett, PsycCRITIQUES
