THE ORIGINS OF ISATT: AN IDIOSYNCRATIC PERSPECTIVE

This chapter presents a personal account of ISATT from the perspective of the first elected chair of the organization. In this work, the 1980s backdrop against which ISATT came into being is instantiated. Further to this, a panoramic view of the literature is offered and an "oral history" approach is used. To end, an archival document - a selection read at the 1988 biennial conference held near Sherwood Forest in Nottingham, England - pays tribute to Rob Halkes, the person who, with the assistance of key others, birthed the international study association which is now globally known as ISATT. © 2013 by Emerald Group Publishing Limited.
