Faglig kritikk og refleksjon er viktige elementer i all helsefaglig praksis og kunnskapsutvikling. Denne antologien presenterer et bredt spekter av kritiske perspektiver på helsetjenester og helsevitenskap, i hensikt å utfordre og oppfordre leseren til kritisk refleksjon. Vektleggingen av evidensbasert praksis kan forstås som en kritikk av at helsearbeid i for liten grad har vært basert på det nyeste av vitenskapelig dokumentert kunnskap. Den økende betydningen som tillegges brukermedvirkning i behandling, tjenesteutforming og forskning, kan i stor grad sees som resultatet av årtier med kritikk av paternalistiske og egenrådige profesjoner. På samme måten kan satsing på folkehelse og forebygging forstås som en kritikk av et sykdomsfokusert helsevesen som agerer først når sykdom og skade er et faktum, i stedet for å forebygge. Evidensbasert praksis, brukermedvirkning og folkehelsearbeid kan dermed framstå som hardt tilkjempede, vellykkede og ønskelige resultater av kritisk vitenskapelig virksomhet. Så hva er da meningen med å utsette slike «opplagte goder» for enda mer kritikk? Med denne antologien vil vi demonstrere hvorfor vi kontinuerlig trenger å utfordre det vi tar for gitt, og vise med eksempler hvordan dette kan gjøres. Målgruppen for boken er forskere og undervisere i helsefaglige temaer, samt studenter ved PhD- og masterutdanninger. Enhver profesjonsutøver i helse- og sosialfag vil også ha utbytte av å lese boken. Professional criticism and reflection are important elements in both practice and innovation within the health sciences. This anthology presents a wide range of critical perspectives on health care and health science aimed at challenging and encouraging the reader to critical reflection. The emphasis on evidence-based practice can be understood as a critique of the insufficient extent to which health work has been based on the latest scientific findings. The increasing importance of user involvement in treatment, service design and research can largely be seen as the result of decades of criticism of paternalistism and self-interest within the professions. In the same way, commitment to public health and preventive care can be understood as a critique of a disease-focused healthcare system that is only engaged once disease and/or injury are present, rather than preventing them. Evidence-based practice, user involvement and public health work can thus appear as hard-fought and desirable results of critical scientific activity. So why subject such "obvious benefits" to even more criticism? With this anthology we will demonstrate why we continually need to challenge what we take for granted, and show with examples how this can be done. The target audience for the book is researchers and educators in various health sciences, as well as students at the Masters degree and PhD levels. Professional practitioners will also find this book of interest.

The article collection of this Special Issue reprint covers a wide range of neurorehabilitation modalities, although they only represent a small proportion of the whole scene. We trust that they will assist clinicians in performing evidence-based interventions and illuminate the necessity of multidisciplinary collaboration. Furthermore, they share an important motivational drive, that is, the inspiration to move forward to a new era where medical, basic research, engineering, and high-tech advances can develop more efficacious approaches, combining neuromodulation techniques under sophisticated neuroimaging guidance. These can be widely and remotely applied to all people that need them, organized under a fresh "patient-centric" approach, with home-based and tele-rehabilitation protocols replacing long stays in medical centers.
