Book Description
When Leaves Listen, the first book in a planned series, blends the magic of Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time, the metaphysical undertones of Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials, and a flare of the dystopian adventure found in Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games. The reader follows fourteen-year-old Dorothy May Noles as she finds her average life upended by a not-so-average disaster. Dottie must navigate the evacuated wasteland that was once New England to transport crucial information, all the while evading an unsettling swarm of humming metallic leaves. Meanwhile, in the world called Sum, an aged seer and a group of enlightened underground rebels seek to protect the worlds from Orville, a charlatan whose work is draining the spiritual lifeforce from the mountains and threatening to destroy the fantastical creatures that reside there. A self-proclaimed nobody, Dottie will suddenly become the most important somebody to save everybody¿ on Earth and in the world it has just collided with.

Book Description
How can new and experienced teachers rethink the ways of teaching and learn to embrace and learn from the diversity they encounter among their students? Rather than preparing teachers to follow prescriptions or blueprints, Katherine Schultz suggests that we show them how to attend to and respond to the students they teach. In this book, she offers a conceptual framework for "deep listening," illustrating how successful teachers listen for the particularities of individual students, listen for the rhythm and balance of the whole class, listen for the broader contexts of students' lives, and listen for silence and acts of silence. Listening in this manner brings together knowledge of individual students, an understanding of a student's place within the classroom, and mastery of subject matter and pedagogy. This volume features compelling case studies that reveal the classroom lives of teachers who are exemplary listeners.

Book Description
In the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, recent technological developments in music listening enabled troops to carry with them vast amounts of music and easily acquire new music, for themselves and to share with their fellow troops as well as friends and loved ones far away. This ethnographic study examines U.S. troops' musical-listening habits during and after war, and the accompanying fear, domination, violence, isolation, pain, and loss that troops experienced. My Music, My War is a moving ethnographic account of what war was like for those most intimately involved. It shows how individuals survive in the messy webs of conflicting thoughts and emotions that are intricately part of the moment-to-moment and day-to-day phenomenon of war, and the pervasive memories in its aftermath. It gives fresh insight into musical listening as it relates to social dynamics, gender, community formation, memory, trauma, and politics.

Book Description
“Be with your body, be with your emotions, be with your self!” Why are we still acting just like before even after we have read so many books and followed so many gurus? After we are hurt, these injuries make up our world. We repeat these dramas in our life. We don’t know how to get in touch with our soul’s longings.

Letting Go—Release Your Suffering is introduced to the West by Suzhen Liu’s mentee Suzanne Yang who has worked at her side for many years. At a time of personal struggle Suzanne Yang has healed herself with the techniques presented in this book and decided that this work must be shared with the West and set out to translate it. Suzanne Yang resides in Washington DC and offers meditation, healing sessions and family constellation workshops.

Book Description
Gateways to Understanding Music, Second Edition, explores music in all the categories that constitute contemporary musical experience: European classical, popular, jazz, and world music. Covering the oldest forms of human music making to the newest, this chronology presents music from a global rather than a Eurocentric perspective. Each of 60 "gateways" addresses a particular genre, style, or period of music. Every gateway opens with a guided listening example that unlocks a world of music through careful study of its structural elements. How did the piece come to be composed or performed? How did it respond to the social and cultural issues at the time, and what does that music mean today? Students learn to listen to, explain, understand, and ultimately value all the music they encounter in their world. New to this edition is a broader selection of musical examples that reflect the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion advocated by North American universities. Eight gateways have been replaced. A timeline of gateways helps students see the book’s historical narrative at a glance. Features Values orientation—Diverse, equitable, and inclusive approach to music history. All genres of music—Presents all music as worthy of study, including classical, world, popular, and jazz. Global scope within a historical narrative—Begins with small-scale forager societies up to the present, with a shifting focus from global to European to American influences. Recurring themes — Aesthetics, emotion, social life, links to culture, politics, economics, and technology. Modular framework—60 gateways—each with a listening example—allow flexibility to organize chronologically or by the seven themes. Consistent structure—With the same step-by-step format, students learn through repeated practice how to listen and how to think about music. Anthology of scores—For those courses that use the textbook in a music history sequence. Gateways to Understanding Music continues to employ a website to host the audio examples and instructor’s resources.
