Leigh and Brown take their readers on a thoroughly engaging romp across the sensory landscape of embodied inquiry. Grounded in interdisciplinary theorizing and bursting with practical wisdom, this book is a must-read for researchers and students seeking to embody and enrich their scholarship. * Laura Ellingson, Professor of Communication and Women's & Gender Studies of Santa Clara University, USA * Embodied Inquiry provides useful frameworks for conceptualizing embodied research and numerous examples that show the breadth of possibilities. Leigh and Brown seam together their divergent approaches to embodied inquiry to create a book that speaks to a broad audience. Written in clear and approachable language, the book is a practical guide for both students and scholars interested in engaging in an embodied research process. * Kimber Andrews, Assistant Director, Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning (CET&L), University of Cincinnati, USA * Embodied Inquiry is a welcome addition to the research methods literature and introduces embodied inquiry as a lens and approach to research. A clearly written, engaging book that speaks to an impressive range of disciplines and theoretical approaches; at its heart are the questions of what kind of research embodied inquiry can be used for as well as the exciting possibilities when you develop it. The authors go through the whole stage of research offering practical but not prescriptive suggestions. * Sophie Woodward, Senior Lecturer in Sociology, University of Manchester, UK *
