/ Advances in Dance/Movement Therapy/ is a book with a truly 
international scope. Seventeen resear­chers from eleven countries in 
five continents present their recent empirical and theoretical work in 
the field. The book covers topics such as work with cancer patients, 
fibromyalgia patients, dementia patients, victims of domestic violence 
and trauma, nonverbal parent child interaction, movement analysis of 
workplace communication, intercultural work, group process, energy 
dynamics, and theoretical perspectives on body image, medical DMT, 
embodiment approaches and affect regulation. The leading chapter puts 
Dance/Movement Therapy into the broader context of Creative Arts 
Therapies. The book addresses creative arts therapists, psychologists, 
medical doctors, neuro­scientists, body psychotherapists, social 
workers, health professionals, nursing and rehabilitation professionals, 
physiothera­pists, occu­pational therapists, recreation therapists, 
counsellors and all others interested in the discipline of DMT. The 
creative arts therapies community and lately more and more professions 
such as psychologist and medical doctors have been crying out for more 
research publi­cations in dance/movement therapy. In that way, the book 
fills a specific need in the field globally.

/“A book to inspire and forge connections between theory, research and 
practice, beautifully edited and clearly presented. The exceptional 
contribution of DMT to psychotherapy is underscored by the research 
focus of the book; the editors and contributors have helped us to make 
another step on the path towards an evidence base for the field of dance 
movement therapy. The breadth of this volume is particularly striking 
paralleled only by its international flavour.”/

Dr. Helen Payne, ADMT UK, Reader in Counselling and Psychotherapy, 
University of Hertfordshire, UK

/“The editors are to be congratulated on drawing together a diverse 
range of contributions in this rich and wonderful book, which describes 
cutting edge dance therapy applications and creative approaches to 
evidence-based dance-movement therapy practice from practitioners and 
researchers around the globe. This broad range of truly international 
perspectives is an inspirational 'must have' for all DMT's and creative 
arts therapists as well as a valuable resource of great interest to all 
health professionals.”/
