Arts, Therapies, Communication

The publication Arts - Therapies - Communication - under the auspices of the European Consortium for Arts Therapies Education (ECArTE) which is concerned with the development of a European-oriented discipline - follows two structuring principles in presenting 120 papers on arts therapeutic issues, the first one is the regional tables, the other one is topic relations.
For pragmatic reasons we are dividing the publication into two volumes, the first of which covers the REGION NORTH-WEST-EUROPE with Great Britain and Ireland, together with contributions from GLOBAL PARTNERS outside Europe (North America with the USA and Canada, South America with Brazil, East Asia with Japan.
The second volume you have in hand.
From the content of the articles it is possible to work out topic blocks which lie diagonally to regionality. That again gives a specific profile to the region, providing a basis for comparative research.
The broad dispersion of thematic impulses provides a true treasure trove for experts and interested persons who wish to experience 'living arts therapy in practice' in supra national orientation today.
