Experiment and Expression in the Music of Charles Ives

Charles Ives (1874–1954) moved traditional compositional practice in new directions by incorporating modern and innovative techniques with nostalgic borrowings of 19th century American popular music and Protestant hymns. Matthew McDonald argues that the influence of Emerson and Thoreau on Ives's compositional style freed the composer from ordinary ideas of time and chronology, allowing him to recuperate the past as he reached for the musical unknown. McDonald links this concept of the multi-temporal in Ives's works to Transcendentalist understandings of eternity. His approach to Ives opens new avenues for inquiry into the composer's eclectic and complex style.

Social Psychology and Theories of Consumer Culture
A Political Economy Perspective

Social Psychology and Theories of Consumer Culture: A Political Economy Perspective presents a critical analysis of the leading positions in social psychology from the perspective of classical and contemporary theories of consumer culture. The analysis seeks to expand social psychological theory by focusing on the interface between modern western culture (consumer culture) and social behaviour. McDonald and Wearing argue that if social psychology is to play a meaningful role in solving some of society’s most pressing problems (e.g. global warming, obesity, addiction, alienation, and exclusion) then it needs to incorporate a more comprehensive understanding and analysis of consumer culture. Wide-ranging and challenging, the book offers a fresh insight into critical social psychology appropriate for upper undergraduate and postgraduate courses in personality, social psychology, critical and applied psychology. It will also appeal to those working in clinical, counselling, abnormal, and environmental psychology and anyone with an interest in the integration of social psychology and theories of consumer culture.

What, exactly, do you know about your body? Do you know how your immune system works? Or what your pancreas does? Or the myriad - and often simple - ways you can improve the way your body functions? This full-color, visually rich guide answers these questions and more. Matthew MacDonald, noted author of "Your Brain: The Missing Manual", takes you on a fascinating tour of your body from the outside in, beginning with your skin and progressing to your vital organs. You'll look at the quirks, curiosities, and shortcomings we've all learned to live with, and pick up just enough biology to understand how your body works.You'll learn: that you shed skin more frequently than snakes do; why the number of fat cells you have rarely changes, no matter how much you diet or exercise - they simply get bigger or smaller; how you can measure and control fat; that your hair is made from the same stuff as horses' hooves; that you use only a small amount of the oxygen you inhale; why blood pressure is a more important health measure than heart rate - with four ways to lower dangerously high blood pressure; why our bodies crave foods that make us fat; how to use heart rate to shape an optimal workout session - one that's neither too easy nor too strenuous; why a tongue with just half a dozen taste buds can identify thousands of flavors; why bacteria in your gut outnumbers cells in your body - and what function they serve; why we age, and why we can't turn back the clock; and, what happens to your body in the minutes after you die. Rather than dumbed-down self-help or dense medical text, "Your Body: The Missing Manual" is entertaining and packed with information you can use. It's a book that may well change your life.

Throughout his time spent with children who were potentially Autistic, he was able to observe their quirks, their communication skills, and their other misunderstandings of their fellow peers, teachers, parents, and themselves. As an adult, he experienced his first course dealing with the DSM-V; the generalities of the Autism Spectrum baffled him and he knew there had to be something done. Working closely with an Autism-specific research facility, he was able to develop a novel that takes in the biggest issues of Autism and the constant struggles and put them into a story. Follow James as he overcomes his condition and embraces his potential.
