'By a number of measures, this is an important and wide-ranging book. Ostensibly about dementia and the contribution that arts therapists can make to relieving the 'nameless dread' that lies behind dementia's implacable tread, a cursory reading will quickly reveal that topics broached extend far beyond these ostensible limits.' - From the foreword by Robin Higgins, former lecturer at Goldsmith's College and the Laban Centre for Dance and Movement, London
