Download or read book Screaming for Change written by Lars J. Kristiansen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Screaming for Change advances an understanding of punk rock by going beyond description of punk as a musical, political, social, and cultural genre of communication. Previous scholarship about punk rock has primarily dealt with those boundaries of genre. Previous scholars neglected to examine the ideology of punk across the decades and continents. That ideology, in a word, is deviance. Through Gramscian textual analysis, this book uncovers this ideology of deviance with some surprises along the way. Students and scholars of punk rock will value the book's attention to both well known and more esoteric punk artists. Punk is arguable the most studied "subculture" to ever launch itself onto the larger social agenda as a possible counterbalance to the mainstream cultural hegemony. During the late 1970s, punk scenes sprouted up in large numbers all over the globe, and it appears that deep feelings of discontent towards the inherent alienation present in the capitalist system were the motivational seed that facilitated their growth. Unconvinced that the historical accounts have been successful in adequately describing and proficiently capturing the essence of punk, this study examines the phenomenon in slightly different terms. This study proposes that punk should be understood as a way of seeing the world, as a way of reasoning, or, essentially, as a philosophy on its own terms.

They do nothing less than deliver you to your best and most powerful self.”—Kathy Freston, author of Quantum Wellness The Tools offers a solution to the biggest complaint patients have about therapy: the interminable wait for change to begin.

Suddenly, through this transformative approach, obstacles become new chances—to find courage, embrace discipline, develop self-expression, deepen creativity. A dynamic, results-oriented practice, The Tools aims to deliver relief from persistent problems and restore control and hope right away. Every day presents challenges—big and small—that the tools transform into opportunities to bring about bold and dramatic change in your life. Stutz and Michels teach you how to: • Get Unstuck: Master the things you are avoiding and live in forward motion. • Control Anger: Free yourself from out-of-control rage and never-ending grudges. • Express Yourself: Learn the secret of true confidence and find your authentic voice. • Combat Anxiety: Stop obsessive worrying and negative thinking. • Find Discipline: Activate willpower and make the most of every minute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A best-seller revised...with a value-added bonus! Many moms feel guilty about screaming at their children but don't know how to stop. Ketterman says, "Having grown up with a loving but screaming mother, I know the emotional damage it causes. Being a mother of three, I also know how easy it is to fall into the habit of screaming." From their research and personal and professional experience, Dr. Ketterman and Pat Holt share why mothers fall into the habit of yelling and what factors drive mothers to lose control. Using real stories from real moms, they discuss examples of how screaming and anger affects children, and also the debilitating affects it has on moms. The authors challenge parents to look at their own anger and choose to react differently. Practical steps are given for more effective and positive ways to get children to do what they must do. The second part of the book offers commonsense answers to specific questions relating to all areas of child-rearing, from infancy through teens.

Download or read book Screaming for Attention written by Chris Arnold and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of true stories told by Chris Arnold, a behavioural consultant who works with people with developmental disabilities. Each story is unique and shows how people labelled with inappropriate, problematic, or even 'psychotic' behaviour may actually have very valid reasons for behaving the way they do. Each story tells how the author worked through the challenging behaviours to find the true motivation or meaning for that individual, and as a result, assist that person to change their behaviour for the better. Some of the stories are humorous, some are sad, but most will cause the reader to stop and re-evaluate the way that they look at people with behaviour problems. The stories may even provide the reader with ideas for helping them deal with challenging behaviour in someone they know or love. The underlying theme of the book is respect for people that behave or communicate differently from us. Recognizing that labelling people, using negative approaches, or isolating them because of the way they behave is not a solution. Instead we must truly look at the motivations for people's behaviour in order to truly understand them. This book also contains a very valuable "useful resources" section that lists some excellent publications and websites on the topic of Non-Aversive Behaviour Management, Crisis Intervention, and Persons with Developmental Disabilities.

Download or read book Roots Radicals and Rockers written by Billy Bragg and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHORTLISTED FOR THE PENDERYN MUSIC BOOK PRIZERoots, Radicals & Rockers: How Skiffle Changed the World is the first book to explore this phenomenon in depth - a meticulously researched and joyous account that explains how skiffle sparked a revolution that shaped pop music as we have come to know it. It's a story of jazz pilgrims and blues blowers, Teddy Boys and beatnik girls, coffee-bar bohemians and refugees from the McCarthyite witch-hunts. Billy traces how the guitar came to the forefront of music in the UK and led directly to the British Invasion of the US charts in the 1960s.Emerging from the trad-jazz clubs of the early '50s, skiffle was adopted by kids who growing up during the dreary, post-war rationing years. These were Britain's first teenagers, looking for a music of their own in a pop culture dominated by crooners and mediated by a stuffy BBC. Lonnie Donegan hit the charts in 1956 with a version of 'Rock Island Line' and soon sales of guitars rocketed from 5,000 to 250,000 a year. Like punk rock that would flourish two decades later, skiffle was a do-it-yourself music. All you needed were three guitar chords and you could form a group, with mates playing tea-chest bass and washboard as a rhythm section.
