Writing and Healing: Toward an Informed Practice
In Writing and Healing: Toward an Informed Practice, editors Charles M. Anderson and Marian M. MacCurdy compile 15 essays composed and directed toward writing teachers and others who have experienced writing and healing in a variety of settings -- from classrooms to substance-abuse centers to AIDS support groups. The essays provide not only descriptions of particular practices, but also explorations of areas of theory that support the development of techniques in healing.
