Kim Burwell investigates the nature of lesson interactions in studio-based instrumental teaching and learning. Focusing on a single case study of two clarinet lessons, Burwell analyses collaborative lesson activity and creates a framework to support reflection among practitioners as they continually develop their work, not only experientially - through the tradition of 'vertical transmission' from one musician to another - but collaboratively, through the 'horizontal' sharing of good practice.
Performing in musical ensembles provides a remarkable opportunity for interaction between people. When playing a piece of music together, musicians contribute to the creation of an artistic work that is shaped through their individual performances. However, even though ensembles are a large part of musical activity, questions remain as to how they function. In Embodied Knowledge in Ensemble Performance, Murphy McCaleb explores the processes by which musicians interact with each other through performance.
Despite their central role in many forms of music-making, drummers have been largely neglected in the scholarly literature on music and education. Drawing on data collected from in-depth interviews and questionnaires, Gareth Dylan Smith explores the identities, practices and learning of teenage and adult kit drummers in and around London. As a London-based drummer and teacher of drummers, Smith uses his own identity as participant-researcher to inform and interpret other drummers' accounts of their experiences. Drummers drum; therefore they are, they do, and they learn - in a rich tapestry of means and contexts.
In this first full-length account of D. H. Lawrence’s rich engagement with a country he found both fascinating and frustrating, Game examines how Australia informed the utopian and regenerative visions that characterize so much of Lawrence’s work.

Adults with scoliosis are often overlooked and forgotten by our healthcare system. After treating many adults and hearing their questions, frustrations and needs, Dr. Strauss was compelled to write this follow-up book. In it he offers adults with scoliosis the fundamentals about scoliosis, treatment options, hope and reassurance. (NOTE: 35% of the content in this book on adult scoliosis is identical to the book on child scoliosis, "Your Child Has Scoliosis, Now What Do you Do?". This identical content includes the history of scoliosis, general scoliosis terms, causes of idiopathic scoliosis etc.)
