Annotation: "Sandplay" brings to life the rich and diverse history of this therapeutic approach for clinicians and sandplay therapists. Rie Rogers Mitchell and Harriet Friedman present an overview of the historical origins and current research in sandplay, providing biographical profiles of the pioneers and major innovators together with discussions of their seminal writings. They then explore the practical applications of sandplay to everyday therapeutic usage and examine the crucial issues facing the future evolution of the technique.
Every chapter has a list of references and the book concludes with a comprehensive international bibliography of sandplay citations and listings of available sand tray videotapes and audiotapes. Much of the sandplay literature is not easily accessible and this special feature will provide a unique resource for clinicians, child therapists, art therapists and any practitioner who works with clients in need of healing at the deepest pre-verbal levels.
"Sandplay" represents an important and much needed milestone in the development of this exciting and fast-growing field.
