Reviews

'This represents the first comprehensive attempt to lay down disciplinary and epistemological parameters for the field of Practice as Research. As such it is completely new, groundbreaking and important. More importantly, it is exceptionally well-conceived, carefully organized and thought-through.' - Dr Lynette Hunter, University of California, Davis, USA '...this book promises to be the first major analysis of practice as research. I have no doubt that as such it will be both timely and useful. Practice as research is by now a familiar feature of the landscape of research into performance. Many academics around the world see themselves as engaged in it. But yet hitherto it has remained, I think, somewhat under-theorised, a bit too slippery. We need a full-on analysis in order to take us to the next stage.' - Professor Simon Shepherd, Central School of Speech and Drama, UK
