This book examines attitudes towards democracy in the Federal Republic of Germany. By drawing on extensive survey evidence, it charts Germans’ changing views of the political system prior to and following unification. The study examines four aspects of the political system: how it functions overall, attitudes towards the Basic Law, trust in representative institutions, and views of the European Union. Rather than accepting or rejecting democracy, the research shows how Germans merge shades of criticism and support. In addition, it pinpoints the factors that condition support, showing how it is influenced by durable and changeable stimuli. Overall, the findings challenge suggestions of a crisis of democracy but they also demonstrate that support is particularly low towards aspects of the European Union. This book appeals to readers interested in public opinion and democracy in Germany, along with those interested in the changing relationship between citizens and the state.

Moreover, singers who have progressed beyond a basic level will gain by using this book as a companion for their on-going development. There is a simplified outline of the basics of singing in "The Fast Track" section. This will help you to become acquainted with the general principles which are treated in more detail in the other sections. The book is structured so that the section "The Essential Anatomy" underpins those on "Training the Singing Voice," "Making Music" and "Performance." The nature of the anatomy section means that there is a lot of information presented, which could be difficult to assimilate all at once. Please think of it as a reference section, which can be either read all at once, or dipped into as required, so that the broader picture emerges over time." The Developing Voice" section is especially relevant for teachers training young adolescents through those years of marked vocal change. The "Making Music" section shows how to put the anatomy and training all together to prepare for a performance. This section also contains advice on choice of repertoire and how to build different styles of repertoire into the voice. In the "Performance" and "The Psychology of Singing" sections you will find advice on the many small steps which lead to a successful performance, bringing motivation, healthy practice and personal fulfilment together to create a fuller picture. General advice on understanding the root causes of vocal difficulties is given in the section on "Troubleshooting," along with some methods of resolving them. More detailed exercises to resolve difficulties are to be found in "Training the Singing Voice." The broader issues of musicianship are covered in the section "Practical Singing for all Musicians," such as the role of examinations, aural training and the benefit of working in groups. The "Further Development" section offers advice on how to take singing into a more advanced field of study or performance. Above all, the intention of this book is to present singing as a pleasurable activity, which, at its best, combines the physical, creative and emotional aspects of human expression.

With over thirty years of clinical psychiatric experience with children and their parents, Dr. Campbell knows how profoundly a parent can influence a child. By anticipating the needs of a child rather than reacting to his or her behaviors, parents develop a relational rather than adversarial family structure. Mothers and fathers will find tools aimed to help them build a healthy relationship with their child that meets all four basic emotional needs: to be nurtured in unconditional love, to be lovingly disciplined, to be trained in anger management, and to be protected from harmful influences. It is after these basic needs are met that a child will be able to understand and respond to spiritual matters. Combining practical advice with anecdotal examples, Campbell offers a purposeful, life-long approach to building happy, healthy, spiritual children.
