Описание:
Thomas Hankins and Robert Silverman investigate an array of instruments from the seventeenth through the nineteenth century that seem at first to be marginal to science--magnetic clocks that were said to operate by the movements of sunflower seeds, magic lanterns, ocular harpsichords (machines that played different colored lights in harmonious mixtures), Aeolian harps (a form of wind chime), and other instruments of natural magic designed to produce wondrous effects. By looking at these and the first recording instruments, the stereoscope, and speaking machines, the authors show that scientific instruments first made their appearance as devices used to evoke wonder in the beholder, as in works of magic and the theater.
The authors also demonstrate that these instruments, even though they were often tricks, were seen by their inventors as more than trickery. In the view of Athanasius Kircher, for instance, the sunflower clock was not merely a hoax, but an effort to demonstrate, however fraudulently, his truly held belief that the ability of a flower to follow the sun was due to the same cosmic magnetic influence as that which moved the planets and caused the rotation of the earth. The marvels revealed in this work raise and answer questions about the connections between natural science and natural magic, the meaning of demonstration, the role of language and the senses in science, and the connections among art, music, literature, and natural science.

The Piano: An Encyclopedia was selected in its first edition as a Choice Outstanding Book and remains a fascinating and unparalleled reference work. The instrument has been at the center of music history with even composers of large symphonic work asserting that they do not write anything without sketching it out first on a piano; its limitations and expressive capacity have done much to shape the contours of the western musical idiom. Within the scope of this user-friendly guide is everything from the acoustics and construction of the piano to the history of the companies that have built them.

Описание: Maple is a comprehensive symbolic mathematics application which is well suited for demonstrating physical science topics and solving associated problems. Because Maple is such a rich application, it has a somewhat steep learning curve. Most existing texts concentrate on mathematics; the Maple help facility is too detailed and lacks physical science examples, many Maple-related websites are out of date giving readers information on older Maple versions. This book records the author's journey of discovery; he was familiar with SMath but not with Maple and set out to learn the more advanced application. It leads readers through the basic Maple features with physical science worked examples, giving them a firm base on which to build if more complex features interest them.

Описание: At the start of the Industrial Revolution, it appeared that most scientific instruments were made and sold in London, but by the time of the Great Exhibition in 1851, a number of provincial firms had the self-confidence to exhibit their products in London to an international audience. How had this change come about, and why? This book looks at the four main, and two lesser, English centres known for instrument production outside the capital: Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield, along with the older population centres in Bristol and York. Making wide use of new sources, Dr Morrison-Low, curator of history of science at the National Museums of Scotland, charts the growth of these centres and provides a characterisation of their products. New information is provided on aspects of the trade, especially marketing techniques, sources of materials, tools and customer relationships. From contemporary evidence, she argues that the principal output of the provincial trade (with some notable exceptions) must have been into the London marketplace, anonymously, and at the cheaper end of the market. She also discusses the structure and organization of the provincial trade, and looks at the impact of new technology imported from other closely-allied trades. By virtue of its approach and subject matter the book considers aspects of economic and business history, gender and the family, the history of science and technology, material culture, and patterns of migration. It contains a myriad of stories of families and firms, of entrepreneurs and customers, and of organizations and arms of government. In bringing together this wide range of interests, Dr Morrison-Low enables us to appreciate how central the making, selling and distribution of scientific instruments was for the Industrial Revolution.

Описание:
Drawing on her high level of technical proficiency, professional violinist Maureen Taranto-Pyatt shares practical guidance in her new methodology, "Progressive Form."
With The New Art of Violin Playing, violinists will learn to appreciate the physics (weight and momentum) and geometry (angles and rotations) of movement with an accurate understanding of anatomy and physiology in order to facilitate a nuanced flow of compression and release. Featuring nearly 400 images and music examples to illustrate elements of technique, balance, and gesture, this accessible guide will help musicians manifest deeper meaning and greater satisfaction in making music. Taranto-Pyatt divides the material into three parts—Left Arm, Right Arm, and Integration—that can be used as a step-by-step retooling of technique or as a reference for targeted issues.
A comprehensive exploration of method in service of musical expression, The New Art of Violin Playing offers the serious violinist a path toward a more integrated and liberated musical world through the combined use of balance concepts, guided movement, and creative images.
Описание: Want To Have Better Understanding Of Music? With The Help Of This Book, Become Expert On Music Theory In No Time
What do you imagine when you hear the words "music theory"?
Is the first image that comes to your head a strict piano teacher who is always loud? Or, maybe complicated books riddled with unexplainable terms?
If the answer to these questions is yes, then this book might come as a pleasant surprise.
Even if you are a self-taught musician, you may ask yourself, "Why should I bother with music theory?" Because even the most basic understanding of music theory will help you expand your range and abilities as a musician.
Music theory isn't just something dull, although many people seem to have a phobia when it comes to learning theory. Their main concern is that theory will damage their creativity or restrict it with a set of unnecessary rules. In reality, that is not even close to the truth - music theory is no more restrictive to creativity than walls are to the shape of a house.
Studying theory will help build your ability to match written notes with tones at a glance and play with more precision. It can also broaden your improvisational skills because if you know more about how to make music more complementary, it will be easier for you to improvise.
Here's what you will learn from this book:
Basics of music theory and how can you benefit from learning it
Easy way to gaining a better understanding of music
How to broaden your knowledge of pieces and composers
Amazing tips on how to master the chords in no time
Becoming an expert in sight-reading and learning to play instruments more accurately
Who is this book suitable for?
Well, everyone It doesn't matter if you want to be a performer, writer, or you just want to get a better understanding of music, this guide will teach you everything you need to hear
What makes this book different from others?
This book on music theory breaks difficult concepts down to manageable chunks. It will teach you the basics, such as the fundamentals of notes and scales, and then progress to complexities such as mastering the chords.
Who is this guide suitable for?
It is suitable for everyone who wants to learn about music theory, even if they don't have any previous knowledge. This book starts with the basics and gradually moves on to more complex notions.
It's never too late to start learning something new. If you've always dreamed of becoming a musician, now is your time to shine
