Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the economic challenges facing symphony orchestras and contrasts the experience of orchestras in the United States (where there is little direct government support) and abroad (where governments typically provide large direct subsidies). Robert J. Flanagan explains the tension between artistic excellence and financial jeopardy that confronts most symphony orchestras. He analyzes three complementary strategies for addressing orchestras' economic challenges—raising performance revenues, slowing the growth of performance expenses, and increasing nonperformance income—and demonstrates that none of the three strategies alone is likely to provide economic security for orchestras.

Download or read book Adolescence written by Miller Newton and published by W W Norton & Company Incorporated. This book was released on 1995 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for therapists in psychology, social work, family therapy, school psychology, substance and alcoholism therapy, and guidance counseling, this book offers a coherent framework for adolescence as a developmental period, surveys current concepts and research, and makes treatment recommendations. Part I on Foundations outlines normal adolescent neurological, physical, and reproductive development. Seeing adolescence as an extended "rite of passage," the author presents stages and tasks that need to be accomplished on the way to adulthood. Part II describes the Developmental Tasks in several areas: personal identity, sexuality, family relationships, social relations with peers, and educational and vocational choice. Therapeutic strategies are suggested for use when the adolescent has taken a developmental detour or is in danger of becoming derailed altogether. Part III focuses on Developmental Traps: drug and alcohol use, suicide, aggression and violence, eating disorders, depression, and chronic diseases. Here proposals for treatment and for changes in social attitudes and policy are specific and strongly worded; they are based on research and on the author's many years of clinical experience.
