Despite pleas to give voice to the voiceless , many voices remain unheard. This is not just because no one is listening, but because their expression may not take verbal form, but may emerge through, or be facilitated by, art. This comprehensive book gives this recognition central place, and it's fascinating essays show the truly transformative power of the arts when applied to shaping genuinely humane and holistic development.
John Clammer, Jindal School of Liberal Arts and Humanities
