This innovative volume introduces Twinley's concept of 'The Dark
Side of Occupation'. Focused on less explored and under-addressed
occupations, it is an idea which challenges traditional assumptions
around the positive, beneficial, health-promoting relationship
between occupation and health. Emphasising that people's individual
experiences of occupations are not always addressed and may not
always be legal, socially acceptable, or conducive to good health,
the book investigates how these experiences can be explored
theoretically, in practice and research, and in curriculum content
for those learning about occupation. Beginning with a discussion of
some assumptions and misunderstandings that have been made about
the concept, the substantive chapters present and analyse tangible
examples of the concept's applicability. This ground-breaking and
practice-changing text provides ideas for future research and
highlights contemporary, internationally relevant issues and
concerns, such as the coronavirus pandemic. This book is an
essential purchase for students in occupational therapy and
science, and valuable supplementary reading for practitioners. It
is also relevant to a wide interdisciplinary audience with an
interest in human occupation, encompassing anthropologists,
councillors, criminologists, nurses, and human geographers.
