Описание: Preeminent music theorist and leader in the study of music and disability Joseph Straus presents a truly groundbreaking take on musical modernism--demonstrating in an expansive and vivid multimedia presentation that modernist music is inextricably entwined with attitudes toward disability. In Broken Beauty, Straus argues that the most characteristic features of musical modernism--fractured forms, immobilized harmonies, conflicting textural layers, radical simplification of means in some cases, and radical complexity and hermeticism in others--can be understood as musical depictions of disability conditions, including deformity/disfigurement, mobility impairment, madness, idiocy, and autism. Against the traditional medical model of disability, which sees it as a bodily defect requiring diagnosis and normalization or cure, this new sociocultural model of disability sees it as cultural artifact, something that is created by and creates culture. Straus places this revised model of disability against a wide range of canonical, high-art concert music from the first decades of the century through the 1950s. Broken Beauty illustrates how disability is right at the core of musical modernism; it is one of the things that musical modernism is fundamentally about.

Описание:
Some consumers regard aromatherapy as a pleasant, mood-altering experience involving scented candles. For Erica Straus, it is the serious and lifelong pursuit of complementary medicine. In How to Heal with Essential Oils, she provides a comprehensive guide for using oils to treat a wide range of diseases without resorting to drugs or intrusive procedures.
Straus stresses safety above all else and begins with some cautions about essential oils: how to buy and store them and the best way to dilute them for effective treatment and maximum effect. The majority of the book consists of a remarkably thorough inventory of illnesses and effective treatments. She catalogues the methods of using essential oils, including salves, baths, compresses, massages, and body butters. She then goes through a list of ailments, from hypertension and anemia to gallstones and breastfeeding problems and lists the essential oils most appropriate for them. She concludes with an index that allows the reader to look up a particular health issue and find the page that describes the treatment.
This book is indispensable for anyone who seeks a plant-based alternative to conventional medical care, outlined in a simple, easy-to-use format.
Описание: The authors evaluated the effectiveness of the Common Core--the first phase of the U.S. Army's system for developing critical thinking skills in its officer corps--and the extent of differences among course venues: distributed, resident, and mixed delivery. Future evaluation should focus on whether the best possible outcomes within venues, rather than equivalent outcomes across venues, are achieved.
