Professional practice in health care and education is currently undergoing major reform as it adapts to complex and rapidly changing environments.

This multi-authored text explores professional practice in health, education and the creative arts in the four key practice dimensions: doing, knowing, being and becoming. These areas are used to explore the reality of professional practice as something more than the application of learned knowledge in practice situations.

Professional practice is presented as a lived experience as well as a process; a service for (and with) others, and a way of being and behaving. The text uses discourse, narrative, imagery and critical debate to explore the essential unity of knowledge and practice. The emphasis here is on understanding creative arts expertise, professional artistry and creativity in practice."

Professional Practice in Health, Education and the Creative Art" is for all those seeking to learn, improve and transform professional practice. It:
Encourages reflective, visionary, innovative and creative practice
Actively promotes the blurring of restrictive practice boundaries
Offers an interesting new perspective for the analysis of professional practice
Provides practical strategies for professional development
Includes internationally recognized authors from the fields of education, health sciences and the creative arts
Reflects the cutting edge of thinking on professional practice

This book is an essential purchase for practitioners, educators and researchers in nursing, allied health professions, medicine and the creative arts who are engaged or interested in practice, and for the otherprofessional people and members of the community interested in the way professionals practice and frame their practice.
