2nd edition of the 'Perspectives' book on application to practice (Sherwood, 2024) PLUS Patient Volition and Action in Occupational Therapy. Patient Volition and Action in Occupational Therapy (Vona du Toit) is frequently to by authors of Perspectives on the Vona du Toit Model of Creative Ability (Sherwood, 2021, 2024). This is an invaluable little book, containing original papers and presentations by Vona du Toit. It includes Vona's original paper on initiative which really sets out the philosophical underpinnings of the model, and explains fundamental beliefs about each individual's responsibility for who we become (and recover to be), and the role and responsibilities of the occupational therapist. The subsequent papers set out Vona's thinking about creative ability, progressing to the 1974 publication of the theory of creative ability. There are conference presentations by Vona du Toit to explain the theory of creative ability, including application to children with cerebral palsy and work capcity. The book also includes a thought-provoking chapter by Pieta Compaan who provides personal insight into recovery through the levels of creative ability, as drawn upon in the ‘Perspectives….’ book. There is also a WFOT presentation by Dain van der Reyden on the model - including useful diagrams.
