Role Play - Theory and Practice

`This book offers a comprehensive survey of the literature of role play and delves deeply into the associated theory... it is an important contribution in that it seeks to offer "an explanation of the theory and practice of role play" in a way which has not been done previously. The literature of role play is thoroughly investigated and reported... for anyone wishing to make a case for role play or writing up a project which makes use of role play, this is excellent source material' - British Journal of Psychodrama & SociodramaAmply illustrated through helpful and practical vignettes, this wide-ranging volume provides an explanation of role play theory and practice. Readers are shown how role play differs from other experimental or therapeutic techniques, and are introduced to the key requirements of good technique. The author does not offer a recipe book of solutions, but surveys the literature to offer a solid theoretical grasp of the subject.
