"An interesting aspect reflected upon by the author is the difference in the clinical reasoning of occupational therapists when treating those from their culture and when practicing in a setting that is ethnically or linguistically different from their ownThe geographical context of New Zealand, used in the example, is an ethnically diverse country where health care is provided within a mixed public/private system.  Cross- cultural factors are addressed in the chapter discussing therapy services for Maori clients in New Zeland. . . Many different aspects of clinical reasoning are covered in this book that would interest an advanced student."  (Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy Article, 1 August 2013)
