Emphasizes the importance of style in writing for a global audience
Style: Lessons in Clarity and Grace asserts that style is a matter of making informed choices in the service of one’s readers. While writers know best what they want to say, readers ultimately decide if they’ve said it well. This flagship text builds on that premise, with updates on subjects such as gender-neutral writing and writing for global audiences. It brings the authors’ innovative approach to the needs of today’s students, while maintaining that writing with style is a civic and ethical virtue.

Establishing an intersection between the fields of traditional music studies, English folk music history and the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, this book responds to the problematic emphasis on cultural identity in the way traditional music is understood and valued.
Williams locates the roots of contemporary definitions of traditional music, including UNESCO-designated intangible cultural heritage, in the theory of English folk music developed in 1907 by Cecil Sharp. Through a combination of Deleuzian philosophical analysis and historical revision of England’s folk revival of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, Williams makes a compelling argument that identity is a restrictive ideology that runs counter to the material processes of traditional music’s production. Williams reimagines Sharp’s appropriation of Darwinian evolutionary concepts, asking what it would mean today to say that traditional music ‘evolves’, in light of recent advances in evolutionary theory. The book ultimately advances a concept of traditional music that eschews the term’s long-standing ontological and axiological foundations in the principle of identity.
For scholars and graduate students in musicology, cultural studies, and ethnomusicology, the book is an ambitious and provocative challenge to entrenched habits of thought in the study of traditional music and the historiography of England’s folk revival.

Once again, Joe Williams, ragman, has me wanting everyone I know to read this, his latest book. He whirls and twirls dervishly with the themes of existence/nonexistence. Duality and non-duality. Deep suffering and profound grace in connection with all that is. He pairs despair with gratitude, and artfully weaves a tapestry of human frailty and possibility. I am deeply grateful for his wisdom and for his art and service. He is one of the few Grandfathers in our medicine family. He serves the Grandmothers faithfully and feeds us all with his reverently irreverent and playful wisdom.

We are in a state of multiple crises. With the COVID-19 pandemic, police brutality, bigotry, racial violence, and a government that seems incompetent at best and adding to the problem at worst all vying for our attention and worry, it''s easy to become paralyzed with fear. Many feel like a scratched record-stuck in one place, unable to move forward. What we need to do is move the needle of our lives and get past that stuck position.
Move the Needle: Get Past the Things that Hinder Your Success by Rev. Joseph K. Williams Sr. is a timely book to help individuals move past whatever is holding them back. Rev. Williams uses an exegetical approach focusing on 1 Corinthians 13:11 and Philippians 3:13 as a framework for returning to pursuing your purpose and passion amid internal and external turmoil. It is time to pray, plan, progress, and move the needle!
