Reviews

'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 & Sociodrama '[A] meticulous exploration of the origins, underpinnings and applications of role play in research, training and clinical contexts. Yardley-Matwiejczuk takes a rigorous scientist-practitioner approach, carefully examining the theoretical and methodological foundations of the technique. For many of us, I suspect, these have never been made explicit... Role Play: Theory and Practice represents a long overdue critical review of current practice, and certainly challenged me to question my approach to role play both as a facilitator and a participant... should interest trainers, researchers and practitioners alike' - Clinical Psychology Forum
