Rehabilitation: A Post-Critical Approach (Rehabilitation Science In Practice Series)

A re-examination of the core concepts and philosophical foundations of physical rehabilitation is highlighted in this book. Taking movement as a starting point, the book expands understandings of movement beyond the physical body and outlines some of the limitations of related concepts that underpin contemporary rehabilitation practice. Engaging in multiple ideas of movement, not only physical but social, emotional, and political, the book investigates the limitations of biomedicine as the framework for rehabilitation and explores new directions to diversify practice.
