This work presents a series of perspectives on the process of self-organization of disabled people which has taken place over the last thirty or so years. The 1980s saw a transformation in our understanding of the nature of disability, and consequently the kinds of policies and services necessary to ensure the full economic and social integration of disabled people. At the heart of this transformation has been the rise in the number of organizations controlled and run by disabled people themselves.

Musical Knowledge: Intuition, Analysis and Music Education
ISBN: 9780415100977 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The understanding of music involves the mastery of its various layers of meaning.

Swanwick guides his reader from a theoretical exploration of musical knowledge, through an...
