Produktbeschreibung
The nature of professional expertise has been widely
examined, primarily from a dichotomy of perspectives
- either from an experiential or a cognitive focus,
without the attempt to integrate these, and other
aspects of expertise, into an integrated and coherent
model.

This book is structured in two sections. The first
part incorporates a philosophical discussion, which
advances an integrated model of professional
expertise. The second part uses a case study focused
on the field of medical imaging to illustrate and
refine the model.

Findings show that while expertise is situated in the
context of practice, it incorporates several
dimensions working together through the medium of the
individual practitioner. Expertise synthesises the
knowledge base, the cognitive processes, personality
and internal processes of the practitioner. It
manifests through, and builds on, interpersonal
relationships with clients and other professionals,
and is expressed through the actual doing of
professional practice. It is through the reflexive
examination of practice and management of change that
professionals may transform these integrated aspects
into the qualitative state of expertise.
