In our time of metrics, league tables and depersonalised measurements, Martin Glynn's book is a welcome relief. A powerful account of a more creative, impassioned method for producing and disseminating research. Recommended for all who believe in the role of art in the academy - and know that research is diminished without its presence.

Martin Glynn offers readers the theoretical and practical foundations of data verbalization through intimate revelations of his personal journey. Through the power of storytelling, in both traditional and contemporary genres, Glynn provides examples and guidance for the development of innovative counter-narratives. This is a rich handbook on the potential of performative art forms as acts of resistance, social justice, and personal healing.
