'A central theme of empowering parents and carers by using these clinical techniques resonates throughout the book... It will encourage therapists to initiate different working apporaches and demostrates an increased need to work flexibly according to the needs of each client and their family.'
- Music Therapy and Special Music Education (http://approaches.primarymusic.gr)
'The 10 chapters each have their own focus, structure and personal style which bring the individual clinician's work fully alive. This type of text is inspirational for other music therapy clinicians and students interested in the growing area...The book is an important contribution to music therapy literature and to the creation of a well established field of working with families.'
- Nordic Journal of Music Therapy
'The book stands as an endorsement, resource and challenge to music therapists to value and develop their work with children and families. Other readers will also benefit from witnessing how music can work its way into such a range of different settings and bring challenge. This is what music therapy is all about.'
