“This edited collection is a much-needed contribution to the creative research methods literature that showcases innovative uses of creative and participatory methods, such as participatory approaches to zines, digital methods and dialectograms. The book benefits from a range of contributors in terms of disciplines and career stage which allows us to think generously about the wide-ranging potential reach of these methods and ways to build more inclusive research.” Sophie Woodward, University of Manchester
