The strength of this book lies in the way it combines critical engagement with theory and the practicalities of using Photovoice to draw on the knowledge of marginalised members of communities whose voices have been silenced in many ways.

Photovoice is a qualitative, community-based, participatory action research method and Jarldorn illustrates its value with examples from her own research.
