One of Sagamore Publishing’s most requested titles is now available as a second edition. The Therapeutic Recreation Journal had this to say about the first edition “The authors compare, contrast, and suggest similarities among various definitions and models of therapeutic recreation. A particularly effective approach is that readers are not told what therapeutic recreation is. Rather, common: “themes” are presented in a manner that allows the reader to develop their own personal view of therapeutic recreation...The person-centered approach is refreshing and keeps the focus of service where it belongs-on the consumer. The authors do an excellent job of carrying this person-centered theme throughout the text...the reader is challenged and guided to develop personal action plans that will ensure the provision of person-centered recreation services, whether in a community or clinical agency.”
