Shorthanded: The Untold Story of the Seals: Hockey`s Most Colorful Team

2006 y.
Publisher: Authorhouse
Description: The saga of the Oakland/California Seals nine-year journey through the NHL is a strange, funny and sad tale that is nearly forgotten and has never been told…until now. Off the ice, the history of the Seals is practically a tale of how not to run a franchise. The team joined the NHL in 1967 as part of the `Second Six` expansion teams and stayed in Oakland until moving to Cleveland in 1976. The Seals had seven different ownership groups in nine years and chaos reigned throughout the process. This book shows you the inner workings of a hockey club that was always on the brink of bankruptcy and/or relocating and takes you behind the scenes of many of the mistakes made by NHL owners and executives during the early years of expansion. It also chronicles the crazy days of ownership by Charlie Finley, a man who admittedly knew nothing about hockey but knew he wanted to run his team his way. Hilarity and disaster resulted.On the ice, the Seals met with little success but were never dull. In… [detailed...]

Shostakovich Symphonies and Concertos - An Owner`s Manual: Unlocking the Masters Series

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The fall of the Soviet empire has not diminished the popularity of Dmitri Shostakovich`s great symphonies and concertos one bit, despite the fact that most literature on him neglects any substantive discussion of the music itself in favor of biographical speculation on the relationship between the composer and the political climate of the day. This is the first book to provide a detailed, descriptive analysis of the 21 symphonies and concertos, work by work, explaining not just why they are significant documents of their time and place, but why they are great music in general. This offers readers an understanding of why Shostakovich`s music enjoys the enduring support of performers and listeners alike, and how it fits into the great tradition of Western classical music generally.

Shostakovich and His World (The Bard Music Festival)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) has a reputation as one of the leading composers of the twentieth century. But the story of his controversial role in history is still being told, and his full measure as a musician still being taken. This collection of essays goes far in expanding the traditional purview of Shostakovich`s world, exploring the composer`s creativity and art in terms of the expectations--historical, cultural, and political--that forged them. The collection contains documents that appear for the first time in English. Letters that young `Miti` wrote to his mother offer a glimpse into his dreams and ambitions at the outset of his career. Shostakovich`s answers to a 1927 questionnaire reveal much about his formative tastes in the arts and the way he experienced the creative process. His previously unknown letters to Stalin shed new light on Shostakovich`s position within the Soviet artistic elite. The essays delve into neglected aspects of… [detailed...]

Shostakovich: His Life and Music

2006 y.
Publisher: Haus Publishing
Description: Dimitri Shostakovich was the most popular Soviet composer of his generation. Internationally esteemed, his reputation has increased since his death in 1975. He is now widely considered to be the last greatest classical symphonist. He wrote his First Symphony aged only nieteen and soon embarked on a dual career as a concert pianist and composer. His early avante-gardism was to result in the triumph of his 1934 opera Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk. First praised as being the product of `the best tradtions of Soviet culture`, the opera was later denounced by Satalin as both `muddle` and `chaos`. Shostakovich fell from grace and for most of his life would suffer from a complex and at times brutalising relationship with both Stalin, through the years of the Great Terror, and the Soviet goverments that followed. He was to endure two official denunciations, in 1936 and again in 1948, both seriously affecting his status and wellbeing. In spite of this persecution his Seventh… [detailed...]

Should Britain Leave the EU?: An Economic Analysis of a Troubled Relationship

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis controversial, challenging and timely book carefully reviews the economic aspects of the UK?s relationship with the EU: trade in goods and services, the single market, tax and regulation, public finances, and monetary policy. The authors argue that the EU has chosen to place political integration before market liberalization and has followed policies of protection not merely in agriculture, but also in manufacturing trade, while leaving continental countries? restrictions on trade in services largely intact. The UK, meanwhile, has developed into a service-based and relatively deregulated economy, and a net importer not merely of food but also of manufactured goods. As such, the book finds that the UK is severely damaged by the EU?s current policies, as indeed is the general mass of the people within the rest of the EU. The book goes on to consider ways in which the political advantages of collaboration within Europe can be maintained while… [detailed...]

Description: The essays in this volume assess the empirical and theoretical questions raised by inequalities of income and wealth. Some consider empirical claims about the amount of equality in modern market economies, assessing the allegation that income and wealthhave become more unequally distributed in the past quarter-century. Others consider the extent to which various government initiatives can ameliorate the problems inequality putatively poses. They consider which standards of equality meet the requirements of distributive justice. They also ask if inequality is intrinsically immoral, regardless of its consequences. [detailed...]

Should I Do What I Love?: Or Do What I Do - So I Can Do What I Love on the Side?

Description: As a pragmatic reaction to the newfound `quarterlife crisis` genre, Katy McColl interviews real men and women `stuck` in their twenties and early thirties and solicits a variety of experts for advice on how to get unstuck. McColl employs a distinctively droll brand of humor and a `self-help without self-pity` approach to inspiring those disenchanted by their initial forays into the heady real world. The themes here are universal ? how to negotiate that with a career, how to study a craft in an un-lucrative field, how to break into glamour industries, and what to do when laid off. Help comes via those who overcame the same problems and blazed their own trails in the most desirable fields, from noted fashionistas like Heatherette to successful musicians like Chris Conley. Organized by case study but filigreed with McColl`s comic commentary, the book offers ace advice on achieving that elusive career that`s rewarding in every respect. [detailed...]
