Abstract
This chapter prepares readers for a review of the history of evidence-based practice debates and definitions and a subsequent examination of common myths and misconceptions that will be addressed by facts. In this chapter, an allegorical story of an African-American family and their daughter begins to differentiate evidence-based practice from eclectic approaches , as well as child-centered , family-centered , and family-driven practice.
