*Art as Research* addresses how artistic enquiry has always been a preferred method of investigating the most complex human problems. The book combines two special issues from the *Journal of Applied Arts & Health* on art-based research which has emerged from applied arts disciplines and is now being used in all situations where the arts can further research. Authors from the arts in therapy are joined by colleagues in philosophy, history, education, social relations, business and organizational studies.

They explore questions that include:

* the personal nature of art-based research and the complexities of partnering with social science 
* how artistic discoveries emerge spontaneously, even contrary to plans 
* how truth can be examined through both fact and fiction 
* and the unique potential of the arts to both generate evidence and convincingly communicate outcomes.
