The Dancer's Handbook
The Dancer’s Handbook offers a holistic exploration of the dance industry's challenges, authored by dancers intimately familiar with its complexities. This comprehensive resource tackles themes like power dynamics, hierarchical structures, and the pervasive influences of capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy as the “status quo” in the arts. This book delves into dismantling the status quo, examining its manifestations in the body and mind of dancers, and advocates for wellbeing and self-worth in the workplace as the way of change. Psychological aspects, coping mechanisms, and the importance of rest are addressed alongside discussions on ethical engagement, consent, and the democratisation of workplace behaviour through co-authored principles of practice. The final chapters empower dancers to find their voice, offering structured communication strategies to confront transgressive behaviours and foster accountability. With insights from years of reimagining working conditions, this book serves as a beacon for positive change, urging dancers and dance-related professionals to challenge norms, prioritise wellbeing, and speak up to power.

Within psychiatry, patients with severe psychopathology, such as those depressed patients who eventually commit suicide, have been shown to present with increased inflammatory markers in th...
Integrated Care and Fall Prevention in Active and Healthy Aging
In today’s world, healthy aging and a fulfilling lifestyle are important to older members of society, with many opting to remain as independent and mobile as possible for as long as possible. However, elderly individuals tend to have a variety of functional limitations that can increase the likelihood of debilitating falls and injuries. Assessments of functionality are very often only performed following an accident, which implies a hindsight bias because results do not necessarily reflect pre-accidental performance capacities. Furthermore, these belated measures do little to reduce the likelihood of new falls. As such, it is imperative that personalized preventative approaches are taken t...
Tools, Strategies, and Practices for Modern and Accountable Public Sector Management
The recent global financial and economic crisis has had surprising effects on several economies worldwide. This global event has promoted the discussion on how ethical, transparent, and rigorous the accountability of public sector institutions is. However, public manager accountability is translated into a vision that goes beyond its sphere of activity, demanding information on how public resources have been managed based on the maximization of social welfare and sustainable development. Tools, Strategies, and Practices for Modern and Accountable Public Sector Management is an essential reference source that discusses the process behind how public resources are managed as well as how they are coordinated to achieve collective success. Featuring research on topics such as corporate responsibility, fiscal accountability, and public administration, this book is ideally designed for researchers, managers, financial authorities, auditors, public managers, public administrators, regulatory authorities, accountants, professionals, and students involved with the accountability and reform of public management in local governments.
