Reviews and Endorsements
'A must read for clinicians and researchers interested in the use of sandplay internationally.'
- Rie Rogers Mitchell, California State University, Northridge, USA and former President, Sandplay Therapists of America and Vice-President, International Society of Sandplay Therapy
'Grace Hong followed her dream, and has brought sandplay to Taiwan. This book describes her experience, and the heroic task of serving as therapist, and then as teacher and supervisor to over a hundred professional people. She includes her own sandplayastudies, her lens on the history of sandplay as a therapeutic modality and her research project with inner city children in Minneapolis. She is truly one of the pioneers in the development of sandplay.'
- Barbara Weller, from the Foreword
