Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roxane Head Dinkin, PhD, a clinical psychologist practicing in Bradenton, Florida, who has long dealt with the problems of infertile women, and history professor Robert J. Dinkin have created an informative book showcasing seven prominent women who struggled with infertility and became creative powerhouses in a variety of fields. Unable to have children themselves, the Dinkins utilized their combined expertise and discovered how these seven women had worked through their infertility issues and honed their creativity to more fully utilize their talents: - Juliette Low, founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA - Joy Adamson, wildlife conservationist and author of Born Free - Josephine Baker, entertainer and adoptive mother of twelve - Frida Kahlo, innovative artist - Emma Goldman, anarchist and birth-control advocate - Ruth Benedict, leading anthropologist - Marilyn Monroe, film star and sexual icon Infertility produces a profound loss for women who hold the expectation that they will reproduce. Infertility and the Creative Spirit clearly illustrates the connection between the desire and inability to have children and lasting accomplishments in other areas of life, showing how infertile women contribute to the next generation.

Download or read book Music and the Creative Spirit written by Lloyd Peterson and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2006-07-27 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like most ground-breaking art forms, contemporary creative music is rarely understood or accepted in its own time, and for those reasons, can largely go unheard. Music and the Creative Spirit: Innovators in Jazz, Improvisation, and the Avant Garde aims to give today's brightest music innovators due recognition and respect, celebrating their work and creativity. Through personal interviews, artists such as Pat Metheny, Regina Carter, Joshua Redman, Fred Anderson, Dave Holland, Bill Frisell, David Murray, and John Zorn—to name just a few—offer clear, frank discussions about music, creativity, work, society, culture, current events, and more. Author Lloyd Peterson has hand picked these artists specifically for their ability to express themselves through their own creative voices and transcend their art form through the strength of their own ingenious spirit. Their music eschews categorization, genre, or style, and the book necessarily takes a broader view of jazz, tapping into the inventive aspect that is difficult to describe or teach, and is rarely discussed. By allowing the innovators an opportunity to speak for themselves, readers are afforded a clearer sense of their attitudes and approaches, their ways of working, and their views of contemporary music and society.

Download or read book The Innovation Manager s Playbook Distribution Version written by Paul Williams and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-08-25 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sports teams have playbooks to organize and orient team members to the strategies and techniques that have been proven to be effective, more often than not, in winning the game. A business or organization is not that much different from a sports team. They have strategies, techniques and tools that help to generate sales, profit and competitive separation. In most business schools, that is the definition of 'winning.' Sometimes the 'plays' are geared toward reaching a particular goal. Other times, the 'plays' are designed to stay ahead of the competition. In all cases, an organization holds their collection of strategies, tactics, goals, tools and trade secrets (their 'playbook') very close to the vest. The strategic and growth-focused concept of innovation management is also highly effective when using the playbook approach. There are numerous processes, tools, techniques, exercises, models and strategies that have been proven to be effective, more often than not, in winning the game.
