It provides clear theory illustrated by concrete examples, practical strategies and tools. Information is presented logically. It highlights the importance of an evidence-based practice; it recognizes that EBP requires much work and must overcome same barriers in clinical settings; and provides concrete ways to achieve this. It is a great one-stop resource, useful for students as well as novice and senior therapists. It would be a great asset to any clinical or academic setting." -- Paulette Guitard, Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy"Together, they (the authors) have produced a helpful book for any allied health professional. Whether you are enrolled in a class or reading the text on your own, this book is very user-friendly because of its consistency across chapters and lack of repetition, despite many authors. I found reading it through cover-to-cover gave me an overview of where the editors were headed, but if I needed information on a particular subject, such as a statistical measure or a database, it was easily accessible and understandable by going directly to a particular chapter." -- Maggie Fillmore, DPT, PT, FAAOMPT, OCS, ADVANCE for Physical Therapists & PT Assistants
