Description: According to the Department of Health, there are 8.7 million physically disabled people in the UK. Of these, some 460,000 people have spinal cord injuries or amputations. There is plenty of mythology around 'phantom limbs' & similar, but this book takes an evidence based look at the reality, & uses of cognitive behavioural therapy.
