The Music Effect

Music Physiology and Clinical Applications

By: Daniel J. Schneck,Dorita S. Berger,Geoffrey Rowland

This book explains what 'music' is, how it is processed by and affects the body, and how it can be applied in a range of physiological and psychological conditions. Rhythm, melody, timbre, harmony, dynamics, form, and their effects are explored, helping practitioners create effective therapy interventions that complement other treatment systems.

Basic Anatomy and Physiology for the Music Therapist

By: Daniel J. Schneck

Providing need-to-know information about the human body for music therapists, this book covers the elements of anatomy and physiology that are of particular relevance to clinical practice. Addressing both the structure and function of the human body, the material is presented with the music therapist in mind. Particular attention is paid to the role of music in affecting responses from the organ systems, including the senses, the endocrine glands, the immune system, the musculo-skeletal system, the nervous systems and the vestibular system. Dr Schneck also uses accessible musical metaphors to explain complex biological information. Emphasising the symbiotic relationship between music and the body, this book reveals how an understanding of this relationship can help music therapists to practice more effectively, and will be of interest to students and practitioners alike.

Crystal Chemistry of High-Tc Superconducting Copper Oxides

By: Bernard Raveau,Claude Michel,Maryvonne Hervieu,Daniel Groult

The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in copper based oxides is an event of major importance not only with respect to the physical phenomenon itself but also because it definitely shows that solid state chemistry, and especially the crystal chemistry of oxides, has a crucial place in the synthesis and understanding of new materials for future appli cations. The numerous papers published in the field of high Tc supercon ductors in the last five years demonstrate that the great complexity of these materials necessitates a close collaboration between physicists and solid state chemists. This book is based to a large extent on our experience of the crystal chemistry of copper oxides, which we have been studying in the laboratory for more than twelve years, but it also summarizes the main results which have been obtained for these compounds in the last five years relating to their spectacular superconducting properties. We have focused on the struc ture, chemical bonding and nonstoichiometry of these materials, bearing in mind that redox reactions are the key to the optimization of their supercon ducting properties, owing to the importance of the mixed valence of copper and its Jahn-Teller effect. We have also drawn on studies of extended defects by high-resolution electron microscopy and on their creation by ir radiation effects.

Simple Wisdom

Alphabetical Reflections on the Nature of the Human Experience

By: Daniel J. Schneck

National Book Award nominated author, Daniel J. Schneck treats us here to his 22nd book, Simple Wisdom: Alphabetical Reflections on the Nature of the Human Experience. Highly acclaimed for his thought-provoking writing and unique ability to "change people's lives through your shared words," Dr. Schneck's unique insights into the nature of the human experience have been called "inspiring and enlightening;" and his writing style "easy and fun to read." One of the many fans of his work aptly summarized it by saying, "Every time something bad happens to me, I read one of your articles and suddenly things don't seem so bad anymore. I am encouraged to move on." The true Renaissance Man ... pursuing active parallel careers in Music, Medicine, Engineering, and the Law ... Dr. Schneck has come at life from many different perspectives. These widely-varied experiences ... which the author describes herein in easy-to-digest narratives and often-amusing anecdotes - many derived from his personal life ... have given him the "simple wisdom" that is evident in the pages of this book. Written in a convenient dictionary-style format, Simple Wisdom provides a useful "thought-a-day" vocabulary of "words to live by." Marinate on these A-to-Z words as they unfold herein and you are guaranteed to come away with a healthy approach to pursuing a satisfying, successful, self-fulfilling life.

Biomedical Desk Reference

By: Daniel J. Schneck,Alan R. Tempkin

The basic language of biology and medicine seems strange, and it should—it is essentially a foreign language, filled with words of Latin and Greek origin, diseases that are identified named after the physician who discovered it rather than the cause or effect, and is otherwise made up of abbreviations and other obscure terminology and information that only a trained physician or researcher would know. Yet many professionals are required to have at least a rudimentary knowledge of biomedical terminology and information, and frequently they are at a loss in understanding even the simplest concepts and terms. For example, how would an engineer know how the various systems of the body work together as an organism? Would a nurse know the difference between the acetabulum and acetylcholine? How can a lawyer or journalist become familiar with common clinical abbreviations and terminology? How can a patient understand his or her own medical record? The Biomedical Desk Reference is intended to be a handy, easy-to-reach for compilation of useful biomedical terminology. The volume contains the following sections: Basic Anatomical vocabulary and Physiologic Concepts; Basic Medical and Physiologic Terminology; Common Clinical Abbreviations; Terms Commonly Used in Health-Care Administration, Insurance, and Legal Settings; Biomedical Eponyms; Medical Prefixes and Suffixes; Synopsis of Major Diseases, Drugs, and Treatments; The Anatomy of the Medical Record. Biomedical Desk Reference also contains a wealth of appendices showing conversion charts, common vital signs, laboratory values of physiologic importance, useful physical constants, definitions, and formulae. This comprehensive reference book will be useful for biomedical engineers, lawyers and legal secretaries, physician's assistants, medical secretaries, nurses, biomedical technicians, laboratory technicians, hospital administrators, ward clerks, aides, and other medical laypersons.
