- involvement of the patient and carer in goal-setting and decision-making (client-centred practice)
- use of outcome measures to evaluate the effects of treatment in everyday practice
- use of case studies to illustrate clinical practice
- scientific evidence of treatment effectiveness
- Additional specialist editor – Dr Emma Stack
- Refined content but with the inclusion of 4 brand new chapters:
- an introductory chapter on rehabilitation in practice
- one on respiratory management
- and two covering self management and falls under the section entitled Skill Acquisition and Learning
- 11 new expert contributors join the reduced contributor team of 31
