Knowing Differently : Arts-Based and Collaborative Research Methods

This book explores the experiential research methods (arts-based, reflexative, collaborative) that allow researchers to access their own and their participants' knowing in richer ways.

It comprises chapters on innovative methods of research and analysis using literary forms, performance and visual arts, and through collaborative and interdisciplinary inquiry.

It offers methodological discussions and first-person accounts of experiences in using these methods in order to fire the imagination of students and researchers.

Writers are drawn from various disciplines in the health and social sciences, and the methodologies they discuss can be applied across these fields.
