Recenzje

'As an introduction to qualitative work in rehabilitation settings with a focus on the perspective of healthcare professionals, this book provides sufficient information and examples of qualitative research that has been conducted by experts in their respective fields. This book is worth reading and I recommend it. The qualitative examples are useful for helping to inform readers about their own research and for demonstrating the value of qualitative research both methodologically and empirically.' - Dominique Kinnett-Hopkins, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine
