Experiencing Big Band Jazz

A Listener's Companion

By: Jeff Sultanof

The era of popular music from about 1917 onward saw an explosion of creative songwriting that converged with a new sound from reed, brass, and rhythm instruments. Jazz was born, and the musical sophistication that accompanied this original sound set the stage for the prominence of arrangers, whose role in big band orchestrations became as important as jazz musicians and composers themselves. The Big Band evolved as a unique phenomenon in American music history. With both studio and live vintage recordings readily available, an investigation of how to listen and experience Big Band music is overdue. In Experiencing Big Band Jazz: A Listener’s Companion, composer/arranger, music historian, and music editor Jeff Sultanof takes a fresh look at Big Band music, examining why the Big Band era started when it did; how pop music changed to meet the needs of Big Bands and the reverse; the role played by well-known band leaders and the bands they led, the jazz soloists who became legendary, and the stories of several ensembles previously unexamined. Lists of must-hear recordings and videos drawn from studio as well as live sources are also included to make the book an invaluable resource for music lovers of every age.

How Men Talk About and How Agencies Respond to Men's Violence to Women

By: Jeff Hearn

Addressing the problem of men's violence to known women, this book considers the scale of, and critically reviews the theoretical frameworks used to explain this violence. From the perspective of `critical studies on men', Jeff Hearn discusses issues, challenges and possible research methods for those researching violence. He draws on extensive research to analyze the various ways in which men describe, deny, justify and excuse their violence, and considers the complex interaction between doing violence and talking about violence. The book concludes with a summary of the key issues for theory, politics, policy and practice.

Progress through Regression

The Life Story of the Empirical Cobb-Douglas Production Function

By: Jeff E. Biddle

The Cobb-Douglas regression, a statistical technique developed to estimate what economists called a 'production function', was introduced in the late 1920s. For several years, only economist Paul Douglas and a few collaborators used the technique, while vigorously defending it against numerous critics. By the 1950s, however, several economists beyond Douglas's circle were using the technique, and by the 1970s, Douglas's regression, and more sophisticated procedures inspired by it, had become standard parts of the empirical economist's toolkit. This volume is the story of the Cobb-Douglas regression from its introduction to its acceptance as general-purpose research tool. The story intersects with the histories of several important empirical research programs in twentieth century economics, and vividly portrays the challenges of empirical economic research during that era. Fundamentally, this work represents a case study of how a controversial, innovative research tool comes to be widely accepted by a community of scholars.

They Said What?!

.......Again?

By: Jeff Necessary

Fasten your seatbelts as you take a hilarious and shocking journey through the minds of teenagers. Learn their views of history, geography, politics, and relationships among other things. Jeff Necessary places you front row and center for this amazing journey. You will laugh. You might cry. You might even wonder, how is this possible? The quotes in this book are hilarious. I hope nobody finds out which one is mine (Destiny Gorum, student). This is such a great book. It highlights a teenagers insight on the world through their eyes. This is a must-read, and you will not be able to put this book down. This book is just plain fun, coupled with high school students view of life. Training young minds is a tough job (Jessica Greene, guidance counselor, North Myrtle Beach High School). As a teacher, assistant principal, and principal for twenty plus years, I can easily relate to the student statements and questions contained in this book. Currently, as director of human resources, I can envision requiring all new teachers to read both the They Said What? books. Within these pages, Jeff Necessary provides a front row seat to the shocking reality of the modern classroom. Although these books will generate much laughter, I feel it imperative that new teachers know exactly what to expect when they enter their classrooms. Providing professional responses to the types of statements and questions in this book can sometimes be challenging. Thank you, Mr. Necesssary. I look forward to more books in the future (Jonathan D. Russ, director of human resources, Fredericksburg, Virginia, City Public Schools).
