- A comprehensive and insightful survey of existing approaches to qualitative research in music therapy.

In the rest of the book, Dr. Smeijsters provides a probing and thoughtful analysis often examples of qualitative research, pointing out significant theoretical and methodological issues, while also offering sensitive and personal commentary on each approach. Drawing upon his extensive experience in clinical music therapy research, Dr. Smeijsters gives enormous breadth and depth of perspective to the diversity already evident in the field.
