Sinopse

Forgotten Museums explores the often-overlooked stories of cultural institutions that have closed their doors, examining the reasons behind their demise and the lessons they offer for the future of cultural preservation. The book delves into the lifecycle of museums, revealing how factors like inadequate funding and shifting public interest can lead to their downfall. It also confronts the ethical dilemmas surrounding deaccessioning, questioning what happens to collections when a museum can no longer care for them. One may be surprised to learn that the decline of some historical societies mirrors changes in academic priorities. The book analyzes these forgotten institutions as valuable case studies, offering insights into how museums can enhance their resilience and adapt to changing circumstances. Beginning with an introduction to museum mortality, each chapter focuses on specific examples of "forgotten museums," detailing their histories and the challenges they faced. By exploring these failures, the book aims to inform contemporary museum practices and contribute to a more sustainable future for our cultural heritage.

Specialized Therapies - Breaking...

Vivian Westlake

This book contains three kinds of therapy:
Psychosexual Therapy - Psychosexual therapy is a specialized form of counseling designed to address psychological factors that impact a person's sexual health and intimacy. It explores the complex relationship between emotional well-being, physical health, and sexual experiences. Often, psychosexual therapy is sought by individuals or couples experiencing challenges in their sexual relationships, such as low libido, sexual dysfunction, or communication difficulties around intimacy.
Narrative Therapy - Narrative therapy is a therapeutic approach that views individuals as the authors of their own stories. This perspective emphasizes that people are not defined by their problems, but rather by the way they relate to and interpret their experiences. The central premise of narrative therapy is that we can rewrite our stories, even the ones shaped by challenges, in ways that empower us to lead fulfilling lives.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy - Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a collaborative, goal-directed approach to therapy that emphasizes finding solutions to clients' problems rather than focusing extensively on the problems themselves. This method arose in the 1980s, developed by Steve de Shazer, Insoo Kim Berg, and their colleagues at the Brief Family Therapy Center in Milwaukee. The therapy stands apart from traditional problem-focused therapies by its strength-based philosophy, its reliance on the client’s own resources, and its focus on the future rather than the past. It offers a clear, practical approach that fosters rapid change and is often used in a brief therapy setting, making it highly efficient for clients seeking to improve their situations in a short amount of time.
