Reviews

'The International Handbook of Dramatherapy, edited by Clive Holmwood and Sue Jennings, is a vital addition to the growing literature in drama therapy. Not only do we hear the voices of key pioneers in the field, but we also hear new voices from Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Australia, North and South America. Given the wide breadth and scope of the old and the new, the field of drama therapy spreads its wings even wider into a global world greatly in need of its poetic medicine.' - Robert J. Landy, Ph.D., RDT-BCT, LCAT, Professor of Educational Theatre and Applied Psychology, Director, Drama Therapy Program
