Sandplay: Past, Present & Future

Authors: Rie Rogers Mitchell and Harriet S. Friedman

Sandplay is one of the fastest growing therapies. What are its origins, who were its pioneers and how have they influenced the current practice of sandplay? What does the future hold for sandplay therapy?

Rie Rogers Mitchell and Harriet S. Friedman have written a unique book that answers all of these questions and many more. They give an overview of the historical origins of sandplay, including biographical profiles of the innovators together with discussions of their seminal writings. Five main current therapeutic trends are explored. In the final chapter the future of sandplay is discussed by addressing emerging issues and concerns. A special feature is a comprehensive international bibliography as well as a listing of sandplay videotapes and audiotapes.
