Hearing (Our) Voices
Hearing (Our) Voices describes two innovative participatory action research projects - one on communication with medical professionals, the other on housing - carried out by a group of people diagnosed with schizophrenia under the guidance of Professor Barbara Schneider. Participants designed the research, conducted interviews and focus groups, participated in data analysis, and disseminated research results through a number of innovative strategies including theatre performances, a documentary film, a graphic novel, and a travelling exhibit. Emerging from these projects is the central and significant finding that people diagnosed with schizophrenia are caught between their dependence on care and their longing for independent lives. The research presented in Hearing (Our) Voices points to a way to resolve this paradox and transform lives through the inclusion of people diagnosed with schizophrenia in research, in decision-making about their own treatment and housing, and in public discourse about schizophrenia.

Golden Threads
"Golden Threads" acknowledges, in a variety of genres, the intimate link between women, the University of Calgary, the Calgary community, and the landscapes we share. For the first time in their own voice, we hear women's stories anchored in the University and the city's past, and continuing through to the present. They explore the legacy of women who were fundamental in the development of a sense of place and community, both on and off campus. Their contributions to community is as relevant today as it was 50 years ago.To read this book, lovingly compiled in celebration of the history of the Faculty Women's Club, is to share in a full spectrum of the lives of women. The stories of the women, who have in common an affiliation with the University of Calgary and the city of Calgary, represent the issues and experiences of Canadian women broadly over the past fifty years and remind us of how women embrace their challenges, value one another, accomplish their mutual goals together, and live joyfully.
Voices from the Classroom
Published Under the Garamond Imprint The voices in this book reflect the broad diversity of a large urban university community, with contributions from undergraduate and graduate students, teaching assistants, contract and full-time faculty, staff and administrators. Issues of equity, diversity and power form the foundation of this community's thinking about pedagogy, and the topics span a continuum from the theoretical to the practical. Voices from the Classroom will have a broad appeal to the university teaching community across North America, facing common challenges in the twenty-first century.
Women's Leadership in Music
Various modes of women's contemporary cultural, social and political leadership can be found in music. Informed by different histories and culturally bound social mores but also by a comparative perspective, the contributors of this volume ask what can be considered leadership in culture from women's point of view. They deconstruct the notion of leadership as corporative and career-related modes of success by showing how women's agency, power and negotiation in and through music can and should be considered as empowering, transformative and role-modeling. By interweaving several disciplinary perspectives - from ethnomusicology, musicology and cultural management to sociology and anthropology - this volume aims to substantially contribute to the study of women's leadership.
