Reviews

A wonderfully rich book, beautifully integrating research with policy and practice, making it highly applicable to researchers and professionals across health and social care, the arts, and the community and voluntary sector. * Daisy Fancourt, PhD, Director World Health Organisation Collaborating Centre on Arts and Health, University College London * A bountiful harvest of theory and scholarship on the power of the arts to help older adults flourish. * Kelly J. Barsdate, Chief Program and Planning Officer, National Assembly of State Arts Agencies * This book is a much-needed, long-awaited treasure trove of resources for anyone working to improve the lives of older adults through creativity and the arts. Its inclusion of policy, history, theory and practice will illuminate and improve future creative aging initiatives for years to come. * Teresa Bonner, Executive Director, E.A. Michelson Philanthropy * This book is an URGENT call for a global reconceptualization of the arts in healthy aging, a serious and timely dilemma. Beyond historical foundations and insights, the authors propose an interdisciplinary collective ecosystem for research and policy development with thoughtful attention to diverse, inclusive, and co-developed arts program implementations to enhance quality of life throughout the lifespan. * Angela M. La Porte, PhD, Professor & Director of Art Education, University of Arkansas *
