About this book

This book explores the power of art therapy and describes the pioneering work of Shaun McNiff and other leading art therapy practitioners. It explains how, whenever illness is associated with loss of soul, the arts emerge spontaneously as remedies. Art and image work to expand communication and offer insight outside the scope of the reasoning mind.
