From the book reviews:
“This fairly exhaustive book on work disability discusses theories, determinants, diagnosis, issues, and prevention measures. … Numerous tables and figures help clarify the text. … This book covers a lot of ground, in both theory and practice, and is easy to read. It will be of great benefit to clinicians, administrators, and researchers.” (Gary B. Kaniuk, Doody’s Book Reviews, January, 2015)Editors and Affiliations
