For nearly 20 years, An Occupational Perspective of Health has been
a valuable text for health practitioners with an interest in the
impact of what people do throughout their lives. Now available in
an updated and much-anticipated Third Edition, this unique text
continues the intention of the original publication: it encourages
wide-ranging recognition of occupation as a major contributor to
all people's experience of health or illness. It also promotes
understanding of how, throughout the world, "population health" as
well as individual well-being is dependent on occupation. At
international and national levels, the role of occupation in terms
of the physical, mental, and social health of all individuals and
populations remains poorly understood and largely overlooked as an
inevitable and constant factor. An Occupational Perspective of
Health, Third Edition by Drs. Ann Wilcock and Clare Hocking, in
line with directives from the World Health Organization (WHO),
encourages practitioners of public health, occupational therapy and
others to extend current thinking and practice and embrace a
holistic view of how occupation and health interact. Addressed in
the Third Edition: An explanation of how individual and population
health throughout the world is impacted by all that people do A
drawing together of WHO ideas that relate to health through
occupation, and how people individually and collectively feel
about, relate to others, and grow or diminish through what they do
A multidisciplinary orientation to promote health and reduce
illness by increasing awareness and understanding of the impact of
occupations across sleep-wake continuums throughout lifespans and
communities The connection of health and occupation is held to be
fundamental, although ideas about both have altered throughout time
as environments and cultures have evolved. To improve
interdisciplinary understanding, An Occupational Perspective of
Health, Third Edition explains the concepts of attaining,
maintaining, or reclaiming population health through occupation.
Practitioners and students of occupational therapy, health
sciences, and public or population health will benefit from and
relate to An Occupational Perspective of Health, Third Edition.
