Reviews
“Building on an already excellent publication, Dr. Kapitan has written an inspiring and informative book, even stronger than its previous editions. Her clear writing style and well-informed chapters help make research understandable and accessible. Importantly, Dr. Kapitan’s attention to inclusivity within research strengthens the book’s relevance to a worldwide contemporary context.” Val Huet, PhD, Visiting Professor, University of Hertfordshire and Ulster University; Co-Director, Oxford College of Arts and Therapies, UK “A master teacher, researcher’s mentor, and editor, Dr. Kapitan has a way of perceiving the big picture and adeptly distilling the complexities of what it means to do art therapy research. Having assigned the text since its first publication, I am astonished by the depth and maturity this 3rd edition offers. Much more than an update or mere introduction, “ample and inclusive” more accurately describe this gem of an art therapy research text. A timely resource with potential to transform the profession and its research.” Holly Feen-Calligan, Ph.D., ATR-BC, ATCS, Professor of Art Therapy, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI. “Reinforcing the pivotal foundation of previous editions, Dr. Kapitan efficaciously expands upon emerging trends and discipline-specific research needs while balancing traditional with new and innovative methodologies. Acknowledging recent shifts impacting humanity, practice, and education, this new edition critically affirms art therapy's responsive commitment to research with sensitivity, relevance, and context-specificity — within, between, and across cultures, geographies, and approaches. As such, this edition has strategically sharpened its focus, pinpointing lenses that account for enriched collaborative worldviews.” Ronald P.M.H. Lay, MA, ATR-BC, AThR, AThS-HF, Art Therapy Graduate Program Leader, LASALLE College of the Arts, University of the Arts Singapore.
