Teaching the Beatles to Undergraduates is a thoroughgoing study of contemporary approaches to post-secondary courses devoted to the Act You’ve Known for All These Years. With chapters related to music theory, ethnomusicology, the social sciences, librarianship, business, and literary scholarship, Teaching the Beatles to Undergraduates offers a vital window into the wide-ranging possibilities of a Beatles-centric pedagogy. With its dual accents upon learning outcomes and Fab Four wisdom alike, Teaching the Beatles to Undergraduates is the kind of book that readers will find themselves coming back to - whether they’re preparing their next syllabus or simply in need of another fascinating anecdote about those four lads from Liverpool.Kenneth Womack, Monmouth University, USA
