The First and Only Scientifically Determined Enneagram Personality Test and Guide

A centuries-old psychological system with roots in sacred tradition, the Enneagram can be an invaluable guide in your journey toward self-understanding and self-development. In this book, Stanford University Medical School clinical professor of psychiatry David Daniels and counseling psychologist Virginia Price offer the only scientifically developed Enneagram test based upon extensive research combined with a self-discovery and personal-development guide.

The most fundamental guide to the Enneagram ever offered, this book features effective self-tests to determine simply and accurately what your personality type is. Daniels and Price provide step-by-step instructions for taking inventory of how you think, what you feel, and what you experience. They then guide you in your discovery of what your type means for your personal well-being and your relationships with others, and they show you how to maximize your inherent strengths. Brimming with empowering information for each of the nine personality types--Perfectionist, Giver, Performer, Romantic, Observer, Loyal Skeptic, Epicure, Protector, and Mediator--this one-of-a-kind book equips you with all the tools you need to dramatically enhance your quality of life.

Daniels' Orchestral Music is the gold standard for all orchestral professionals--from conductors, librarians, programmers, students, administrators, and publishers, to even instructors--seeking to research and plan an orchestral program, whether for a single concert or a full season.

This sixth edition, celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the original edition, has the largest increase in entries for a new edition of Orchestral Music: 65% more works (roughly 14,050 total) and 85% more composers (2,202 total) compared to the fifth edition. Composition details are gleaned from personal inspection of scores by orchestral conductors, making it a reliable one-stop resource for repertoire.

Users will find all the familiar and useful features of the fifth edition as well as significant updates and corrections. Works are organized alphabetically by composer and title, containing information on duration, instrumentation, date of composition, publication, movements, and special accommodations if any. Individual appendices make it easy to browse works with chorus, solo voices, or solo instruments. Other appendices list orchestral works by instrumentation and duration, as well as works intended for youth concerts. Also included are significant anniversaries of composers, composer groups for thematic programming, a title index, an introduction to Nieweg charts, essential bibliography, internet sources, institutions and organizations, and a directory of publishers necessary for the orchestra professional.

This trusted work used around the globe is a must-have for orchestral professionals, whether conductors or orchestra librarians, administrators involved in artistic planning, music students considering orchestral conducting, authors of program notes, publishers and music dealers, and instructors of conducting.

The Distance Learning Guide seeks to fill-in knowledge gaps that became evident following school closures. It provides a framework for students, families, and teachers to discuss vital topics, such as how and where to study in the home environment, how to cope with continuous change, and looking forward to a brighter future. The Distance Learning Guide supports distance learning by identifying some of its shortcomings but encouraging academic success and participation.

This learning guide features 18 writing/discussion prompts addressing issues such as active participation, family support, emotional strain, and distance learning challenges. It contains more than 20 additional fill-in prompts for students to record their teacher's names, daily class schedule, and weekend activities.

While many school districts strive to meet new challenges using paperless electronic formats, this printed learning guide will be a welcome and tangible benefit for many students and their families. The print format offers greater opportunity and ease of access for parents who face unprecedented challenges, including a barrage of school-sourced emails. Attractive graphics and interesting topics make the Distance Learning Guide a unique tool for reaching out to teens who are reluctant to fully engage in distance learning.

The guide was written by an education specialist at a Northern California school to aid his students and their parents/guardians in adjusting to the distance learning process.
