'Bringing together student, academic, and institutional perspectives, this book casts light on the unique and challenging form of the doctoral thesis in the creative and performing arts, where the written text is combined with a creative/performed text, to present a unique contribution to research. It provides insights into the nature of doctoral writing across a wide range of creative and performing arts disciplines and enhances understanding of student experiences of doctoral writing. Academic perspectives are provided: that of the examiners, the supervisors, and the institutions. The book also investigates the nature of successful research in these disciplines.'

Since that time, the acceptance of creative practice research degrees has flourished both in Australia and internationally. This important and substantial book represents many of the key researchers in the Australian higher education sector for the creative arts, and thus is worthy of a re-examination in the light of a collection of articles dealing with the current state of the creative practice PhD. Many of these authors have, indeed, won government funding to pursue research projects in this space and the wealth of their knowledge and experience shines through in many of these chapters. The editors must be commended for the breadth of perspectives and expertise they have secured in this text.' (Introduction)
