This book, \u003cem\u003eEcologies of Community in Performance\u003c\/em\u003e, continues to explore arts practices, focusing on communities and turning to the language of ecology to understand the complexities and working dynamics of arts communities. The book provides a thoughtful analysis of how communities work as ecologies, offering case studies of community processes by way of illustrating the main discussion. In doing so it reveals how the triangulation of ecology, community, and performance allows for a deeper understanding of dynamic relations in the arts, enabling scholars, practitioners and policy-makers to better conceptualise ecological thinking in relation to 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e century arts practices.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKaren Savage\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Creative and Collaborative Arts at the University of Lincoln, UK.
