Reviewer:	Melissa Sue Dappen, BA, MS, OT(Rush University Medical Center)
This is a very useful book for students and clinicians who adhere to the theory and application of MOHO. It is on par with other books in the field (see Christiansen et al., *Occupational Therapy: Performance, Participation, and Well-Being* (Slack Incorporated, 2005); Cronin and Mandich (2004) *Human Development and Performance Throughout the Life Span* (Delmar, Cengage Learning, 2004); Matuska and Christiansen, *Ways of Living: Adaptive Strategies for Special Needs*, 3rd edition (American Occupational Therapy Association, 2004)), and provides an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand description of a model that is both obvious (of course, people perform best when motivated and performing within the context of their normal life) and often forgotten in the context of a hospital setting, classroom, and everywhere that therapy occurs. This edition is better organized than the previous one and it provides updates in the research involving MOHO, the application of MOHO within the ICF and the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (though the author may have been well advised to hold off on publication until the most recent version of the Framework was published), and a more thorough description of the MOHO Clearinghouse and Web site.
