The Philosophy of Modern Song - Bob Dylan

The Philosophy of Modern Song is Bob Dylan s first book of new writing since 2004 s Chronicles: Volume One - and since winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016. Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers a masterclass on the art and craft of songwriting. He writes over 60 essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyses what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal. These essays are written in Dylan s unique prose. They are mysterious and mercurial, poignant and profound, and often laugh-out-loud funny. And while they are ostensibly about music, they are really meditations and reflections on the human condition. Running throughout the book are nearly 150 carefully curated photos as well as a series of dream-like riffs that, taken together, resemble an epic poem and add to the work s transcendence. In 2020, with the release of his outstanding album Rough and Rowdy Ways, Dylan became the first artist to have an album hit the Billboard Top 40 in each decade since the 1960s. The Philosophy of Modern Song contains much of what he has learned about his craft in all those years and, like everything that Dylan does, it is a momentous artistic achievement.

Song of the Sun God spans three continents and three generations of a family that remains dedicated to its homeland, whilst learning to embrace its new home.

Arranged in marriage, they learn to love each other and protect their growing family, against the backdrop of increasing ethnic tension.

As the country descends into a bloody civil war, Nala and Rajan must decide which path is best for their family; and live with the consequences of their mistakes.

Funk You Too! Humor and Irreverence in Ceramic Sculpture

The first book to connect the history of Funk Art to contemporary ceramic practice. Funk You Too! arrives at a moment when clay has unprecedented currency in the art world as a sculptural medium. It is the first book to connect the history of Funk Art to contemporary ceramic practice through an exploration of the enduring role of humor in clay image-making. The founding generation of Funk artists used forms of subversion to deflate the power of the aesthetic hierarchy that dismissed ceramics as hobby art. Today, in the hands of a younger, more diverse cohort, the irreverent approach is a powerful tool of critique and personal expression and the ⠜spoonful of sugar⠝ to help discuss sociopolitical concerns of our time. Showcasing over 50 works from a 2023 exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City, this catalog addresses the historical context for the emergence of ceramic sculpture in 1960s Funk Art and applies a critical lens to work by its contemporary successors. The exhibition⠙s curator, Angelik Vizcarrondo-Laboy, conceptually frames the exhibition⠙s emphasis on humor as a tool for tackling personal and political themes. Garth Johnson contributes an essay on the impulse for humor in American ceramics that lead to Funk ceramics. The catalog also features biographies of the artists, color images, and a select bibliography.

Wellington: The Road to the Lion´s Mound 1769-1815 - Daniel Res

Wellington - The Road to the Lion s Mound is the story of the 1st Duke of Wellington, the man who defeated Napoleon at Waterloo and became a celebrated hero not only in Britain and Europe, but throughout the world. Daniel Res tells the gripping tale of Wellington s exploits, giving the book an almost novel-like readability. In it we discover the story of Wellington s youth in Ireland, his shaky beginnings in politics and the army, his first military success in India and his crucial engagements with Napoleonic France on the Iberian Peninsula as he fights his way from there to the south of France in 1814 - all events which culminate in the Battle of Waterloo the following year. Res presents Wellington not only as an ingenious commander, but also as a sensitive man, one often shaken by the realities and horrors of war. Wellington is revealed to be an excellent horseman, a passionate reader, a gentleman, an impeccable organizer, perfectionist and workaholic, as well as being a Conservative politician with a notably British sense of humour. The author also recounts something of Wellington s wooing of and marriage to Catherine Kitty Pakenham, a story likened by contemporaries to Odysseus and Penelope. This provides the reader with insight into Wellington s development from a dreamy, idle and shy lad , an often lovelorn and unrestrained youth, to a man of principle with strong personal convictions and values. The book s title - Wellington - The Road to the Lion s Mound - has been inspired by the monument that today stands on the battlefield of Waterloo and symbolizes the Duke s personal journey. From a scholarly perspective, Wellington - The Road to the Lion s Mound offers up an interesting hypothesis concerning the creation of the Lines of Torres Vedras, and discusses in detail the connection between Wellington s campaigns and the activities of his Intelligence Service, casting fresh light on many of the Duke s crucial decisions. However, Res s primary contribution to the subject as an historian operating outside the Anglosphere is the addition of a richly detailed Central European context to the topic as well as new sources from the Czech and German languages. For instance, Res points to the rather surprising fact that Wellington did not consider Napoleon to be the best commander of his era, but rather the Austrian commander Archduke Charles, who was also the first man to defeat Napoleon in the field of battle. In the final chapter, Res provides an analysis of Anglo-Austrian relations in the Napoleonic Era. Here we encounter Wellington s correspondence with a member of the Bohemian nobility, Marshal Karl Philipp of Schwarzenberg, a figure who led the allied troops to victory over Napoleon at Leipzig. The book also tells the remarkable tale of the Black Brunswickers , who banded together in Nachod, Czech Republic and fought their way through to join Wellington s forces in Portugal. Rich in colour and texture, as well as supported by a wealth of illustrations, Wellington - The Road to the Lion s Mound seeks to be a useful new addition to the plethora of books about one of history s most remarkable commanders.

The Pointillistic City - Daniel T. O

A new paradigm of research, policy, and practice that acknowledges the multiple scales at which we live every day.The Pointillistic City explores the multilayer geography of our daily lives—specifically, how we simultaneously live at the scales of addresses, streets, and neighborhoods and how each can be relevant for our well-being. Not unlike the way in which we look at a pointillistic painting, which depicts a full scene through the detailed organization of multiple objects, Daniel T. O’Brien considers the three scales together and the comprehensive understanding of the city they offer. The pointillistic approach to the city contrasts with decades of focus on neighborhoods. As such, it surfaces microspatial inequities, or disparities in experiences between people living in the same neighborhood, even right around the corner from each other. Microspatial inequities have gone largely unnoticed to date, and their recognition offers a new approach to understanding and supporting the diverse population of the city.This book illustrates the pointillistic perspective on cities with two in-depth case studies—one on crime, the other on environmental justice—in Boston. These studies highlight microspatial inequities and their interplay with broader neighborhood conditions, and they go even further by demonstrating how these insights can be incorporated into a new generation of policies and practices that are science driven and community led, truly addressing disparities both between and within our communities.

The Last Man Takes LSD - Daniel Zamora, Mitchell Dean

FoucaultÂ’s personal and political experimentation, its ambiguous legacy, and the rise of neoliberal politicsPart intellectual history, part critical theory, The Last Man Takes LSD challenges the way we think about both Michel Foucault and modern progressive politics. One fateful day in May 1975, Foucault dropped acid in the southern California desert. In letters reproduced here, he described it as among the most important events of his life, one which would lead him to completely rework his History of Sexuality. That trip helped redirect FoucaultÂ’s thought and contributed to a tectonic shift in the intellectual life of the era. He came to reinterpret the social movements of May Â’68 and reposition himself politically in France, embracing anti-totalitarian currents and becoming a critic of the welfare state.Mitchell Dean and Daniel Zamora examine the full historical context of the turn in FoucaultÂ’s thought, which included studies of the Iranian revolution and French socialist politics, through which he would come to appreciate the possibilities of autonomy offered by a new force on the French political scene that was neither of the left nor the right: neoliberalism.

Some 45% of Europeans suffer high blood pressure, and nearly 70% of Americans take at least one prescription drug. Illness and trauma are defining how we live.In his new masterpiece, renowned physician, addiction expert and author Gabor Mate dissects the underlying causes of this malaise - physical and emotional, and connects the dots between our personal suffering and the pressures of modern-day living. Over four decades of clinical experience, Dr Mate has found that the common definition of normal is false: virtually all disease is actually a natural reflection of life in an abnormal culture, as we grow further and further apart from our true selves. But he also shows us the pathway to reconnection and healing.Filled with stories of people in the grip of illness or in the triumphant wake of recovery, this life-affirming book shows how true health is possible - if we are willing to embrace authenticity above social expectations. The Myth of Normal is Gabor Mate s most ambitious, compassionate and urgent book yet.

Inside the Mind of Ted Bundy - Jeremy Daniel, Tanya Farber

Ted Bundy, a failed law student and lone drifter, was one of the most notorious serial killers of the twentieth century, also a rapist and necrophiliac. In spite of his apparent charm and intelligence and seemingly normal relationships with women, during a killing spree between 1974 and 1978, he raped and murdered at least thirty girls and young women in five different US states.This was the decade during which ‘criminal profiling’ was initially developed and the term ‘serial killer’ was first used by law-enforcement agencies. Bundy’s trial was the first in the United States to be nationally televised. His resulting ‘celebrity’ has spawned many films and TV dramas, including Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, in 2019, starring Zac Efron. His many victims have received rather less attention.Bundy was sentenced to death in 1979 and executed in Florida in 1989, in the electric chair.

This is Your Brain on Music - Daniel J. Levitin

From the author of The Changing Mind and The Organized Mind comes The New York Times bestseller which unravels the mystery of our perennial love affair with music***** What do the music of Bach, Depeche Mode and John Cage fundamentally have in common? Music is an obsession at the heart of human nature, even more fundamental to our species than language. From Mozart to the Beatles, neuroscientist, psychologist and internationally-bestselling author Daniel Levitin reveals the role of music in human evolution, shows how our musical preferences begin to form even before we are born and explains why music can offer such an emotional experience.In This Is Your Brain On Music Levitin offers nothing less than a new way to understand music, and what it can teach us about ourselves. ***** Music seems to have an almost wilful, evasive quality, defying simple explanation, so that the more we find out, the more there is to know . . . Daniel Levitin s book is an eloquent and poetic exploration of this paradox Sting You ll never hear music in the same way again Classic FM magazine Music, Levitin argues, is not a decadent modern diversion but something of fundamental importance to the history of human development Literary Review

Optimal - Daniel Goleman

More than twenty-five years on from the huge bestseller Emotional Intelligence, this book reframes the concept s importance for a new era, explaining how to create high performing individuals, teams and organisationsEmotional intelligence is now embedded in our public discourse: an idea so pervasive and important in our work, culture, politics and society that leaders such as Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase and New York City mayor Eric Adams have placed it at the heart of what they do.Daniel Goleman s bestselling book Emotional Intelligence was the first to coin this idea and bring it to a mass audience. Now, more than a quarter of a century after it was first published, he and Rutgers professor of psychology Cary Cherniss take a fresh look at how emotional intelligence has evolved over the past few decades, reframing its importance in this definitive book.Beginning with a dissection of what makes for individual success, Goleman and Cherniss then set out how high performance can be cultivated at every level, scaling up the concept to top team performance and outstanding organisations. Building on attributes such as self-awareness, a sense of meaning and emotional balance, high concentration and flow states, they demonstrate that it is in our optimal moments that our mental clarity shines.

Prepare to gasp out loud, cringe, cackle, and cry... Hilarious hijinks aside, at its heart, this is a book that isn t afraid to dive deep into heart wrenching isolation and the anxiety that comes with trying to figure out how to get your shit together. Jesse SutantoDavid s writing career? Dying. And his hot new date? Dead in his bed.A few years ago, David Alvarez had it all: a six-figure book deal, a loving boyfriend, and an exciting writing career. His debut novel was a resounding success, which made the publication of his second book-a total flop-all the more devastating. Now, David is single, lonely, and desperately trying to come up with the next great idea for his third manuscript, which will hopefully be the one to save him from ruin.In an attempt to find inspiration, David hits the dating apps. And his luck seems to have turned when he meets a devastatingly handsome, confident, and wealthy man who takes him out on the town for the best night of his life. There s only one problem. The morning after a phenomenal date, David wakes to find his prince charming dead in his bed. Terrified and confused, David calls the only person he can trust in a moment of crisis: his literary agent, Stacey. What ensues is a madcap adventure through the city with his dead date as David and Stacey try to find what secrets prince charming has been hiding, and just how much hot water David is in. One silver lining? His next book idea seems pretty set...Read what everyone has been saying about I Might Be in Trouble: Funny, relatable, and utterly bonkers, I Might Be in Trouble is an anxiety-ridden thrill ride that I couldn t put down. David Alvarez is one of those heartbreakingly vulnerable characters that you want to shake one moment, and wrap in a blanket to keep safe from harm the next. Come for the deadly hijinks, stay for the if I don t laugh, I ll cry look at what it s like to work in publishing. Mia P. Manansala A genre-busting rollercoaster ride. . .

Letters to a Young Chef, 2nd Edition - Daniel Boulud

From the reinvention of French food through the fine dining revolution in America, Daniel Boulud has been a witness to and a creator of today s food culture. A modern improviser with a classical foundation (a little rock n roll and a lot of Mozart, he d say), he speaks with the authority that comes from a lifetime of preparing, presenting, and thinking about food-an ancient calling with universal resonance. In Letters to a Young Chef, Boulud speaks not only of how to make a career as a chef in today s world, but also of why one should want to do so in the first place. As he himself puts it, it is a tasty life. The love of food and the obsession with flavors, ingredients, and techniques are the chef s source of strength, helping the young chef to survive and flourish during the long years of apprenticeship and their necessary sacrifices. Part memoir, part advice book, part cookbook, part reverie, this delicious new book will delight and enlighten chefs of all kinds, from passionate amateurs to serious professionals.

The Beautiful Ones - Prince

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Times, Sunday Times and Telegraph Book of the Year______________________________________________ A triumph ... a masterclass in the bottling of its subject⠙s seductive essence. His presence in this book is so strong that it⠙s hard to believe he has really left the building MOJO Handsomely presented, visually sumptuous THE TIMES______________________________________________From Prince himself comes the brilliant coming-of-age-and-into-superstardom story of one of the greatest artists of all time⠔featuring never-before-seen photos, original scrapbooks and lyric sheets, and the exquisite memoir he began writing before his tragic death. Prince was a musical genius, one of the most talented, beloved, accomplished, popular, and acclaimed musicians in pop history. But he wasn t only a musician⠔he was also a startlingly original visionary with an imagination deep enough to whip up whole worlds, from the sexy, gritty funk paradise of his early records to the mythical landscape of Purple Rain to the psychedelia of Paisley Park. But his greatest creative act was turning Prince Rogers Nelson, born in Minnesota, into Prince, the greatest pop star of his era. The Beautiful Ones is the story of how Prince became Prince⠔a first-person account of a kid absorbing the world around him and then creating a persona, an artistic vision, and a life, before the hits and fame that would come to define him. The book is told in four parts. The first is composed of the memoir he was writing before his tragic death, pages that brings us into Prince s childhood world through his own lyrical prose. The second part takes us into Prince s early years as a musician, before his first album released, through a scrapbook of Prince s writing and photos. The third section shows us Prince s evolution through candid images that take us up to the cusp of his greatest achievement, which we see in the book s fourth section: his original handwritten treatment for Purple Rain⠔the final stage in Prince s self-creation, as he retells the autobiography we ve seen in the first three parts as a heroic journey. The book is framed by editor Dan Piepenbring⠙s riveting and moving introduction about his short but profound collaboration with Prince in his final days⠔a time when Prince was thinking deeply about how to reveal more of himself and his ideas to the world, while retaining the mystery and mystique he⠙d so carefully cultivated⠔and annotations that provide context to each of the book⠙s images. This work is not just a tribute to Prince, but an original and energizing literary work, full of Prince⠙s ideas and vision, his voice and image, his undying gift to the world.______________________________________________⠘Prince⠙s voice comes through loud and clear; his personality, joie de vivre and single-mindedness jumping off the page throughout.⠙CLASSIC POP MAGAZINE The Beautiful Ones is for everyone. It s not a read, but an experience, an immersion inside the mind of a musical genius. You are steeped in Prince s images, his words, his essence⠦ The book can be a starting point for a Prince fascination, or a continuation of long-standing admiration. Either way, it will deepen the connection of any reader with the musical icon.⠝USA TODAY ⠘The Beautiful Ones remains a jewel-like fragment, Piepenbring⠙s sensitive introduction providing a snapshot of the Purple One⠙s last months at Paisley Park and during the Piano and Microphone tour⠙ Q MAGAZINE An affirmation of Prince⠙s Blackness and humanity⠦ Prince writes about his childhood with clarity and poetic flair, effortlessly combining humorous anecdotes with deep self-reflection and musical analysis⠦ Prince is one of us ⠔ he just worked to manifest dreams that took him from the North Side of Minneapolis to the Super Bowl. HUFFPOST⠘A compelling curiosity that finds its author orbiting around a few touchingly intimate encounters with his sphinx-like subject ⠦ with passages, lyric sheets and photographs from the Purple One himself⠙TELEGRAPH, Books of the Year A memoir that is written by Prince, literally. Handwritten pages he had shared with Piepenbring make up Part 1, taking us from his first memory ⠔ his mother s eyes ⠔ through the early days of his career... The Beautiful Ones doesn t paint a perfect picture. It s not definitive. It can t be, it shouldn t be and, thankfully, it doesn t try to be. We ll never know what it might have been if Prince had lived. But it s a good start. Now, it s up to us to take what s there and make something out of it for ourselves, creating, just as Prince wanted. NPR Both a pleasure and a surprise ... Prince took the project very seriously, and it shows in the work he delivered. ... It shines an intimate and revealing light on the least-known period of his life VARIETY⠘The Beautiful Ones is a book in pieces, fragments of the ground-breaking autobiography
