"Lifespans is a beautifully written and illustrated collection of developmental art therapy presentations. The book is the first of its kind and an invaluable tool for not only art therapists but also for psychologists. Peg Dunn Snow and Jill McNutt have edited a masterful publication, which is an important contribution to the field of art therapy."

Art Therapy Through the Lifespan is a long-awaited text that views human development through the lens of art therapy treatment. Dunn-Snow and McNutt have complied a wide-ranging resource that supports conceptualizing and implementing treatment with an eye to age appropriate and developmentally sensitive use of media in the context of psychological and art therapy theory. This book draws from the many resources that have been necessary to teach and practice art therapy from a developmental platform. Case studies are structured around a format that brings variety and clarity to the text. Those interested in investigating the human life cycle from a fresh and clinically informed perspective will appreciate the contributions of the many clinicians that have contributed to this valuable text.
