Music Performance Anxiety
Music Performance Anxiety (MPA) has been proven to affect many individuals, independent of age, gender, experience and hours of practice. This book provides an excellent and updated review of the literature on the topic, including concept, epidemiology, methodical aspects and interventional studies. Suggestions of the correct use of the term MPA and the identification of necessary future studies, as well as comments on and critiques of those already published, will also be provided.
The Musician's Mind
Where does learning begin and how is it sustained and stored in the brain? For musicians, these questions are at the very core of their creative lives. Cognitive and neuroscience have flung wide the doors of our understanding, but bridging the gap between research data and music-making requires a unique immersion in both worlds. Lynn Helding presents a symphony of discoveries that illuminate how musicians can optimize their mental wellbeing and cognitive abilities. She addresses common brain myths, motor learning research and the concept of deliberate practice, the values of instructional feedback, technology’s role in attention disorders, the challenges of parenting young musicians, performance anxiety and its solutions, and the emerging importance of music as a social justice issue. More than an exploration of the brain, The Musician’s Mind is an inspiring call for artists to promote the cultivation of emotion and empathy as cornerstones of a civilized society. No matter your instrument or level of musical ability, this book will reveal to you a new dynamic appreciation for the mind’s creative power.
Blotted Lines
Blotted Lines rebuffs centuries of mythologization about the creative process—the idea that William Shakespeare "never blotted out line"—to argue that by studying how early modern writers faced the challenges of writing poetry, instructors today can empower their students' approaches to critical writing. Adhaar Noor Desai offers deeply researched accounts of how poetic labor intersected with early modern rhetorical theory, material culture, and social networks. Tracing the productive struggles of such writers as George Gascoigne, Philip Sidney, John Davies of Hereford, Lady Anne Southwell, and Shakespeare across their manuscripts, Desai identifies in their work instances of discompositio...
Psychology of Music
In Psychology of Music: From Sound to Significance (2nd edition), the authors consider music on a broad scale, from its beginning as an acoustical signal to its different manifestations across cultures. In their second edition, the authors apply the same richness of depth and scope that was a hallmark of the first edition of this text. In addition, having laid out the topography of the field in the original book, the second edition puts greater emphasis on linking academic learning to real-world contexts, and on including compelling topics that appeal to students’ natural curiosity. Chapters have been updated with approximately 500 new citations to reflect advances in the field. The organi...
Décider de son âge - Les dernières découvertes scientifiques pour rester jeune plus longtemps
Vous croyez que votre âge se calcule grâce à votre date de naissance, mais les scientifiques savent aujourd'hui évaluer votre âge véritable, celui de votre organisme. Et vous êtes probablement plus jeune, ou plus vieux que vous ne le pensez... Ce livre rend accessibles les dernières découvertes sur le vieillissement. Comprendre ses mécanismes pour en retarder les effets, voire pour les inverser, n'est plus un rêve de savant fou. C'est le quotidien de chercheurs comme Jean-Marc Lemaitre, qui, avec son équipe, démontre qu'il est possible de rajeunir. Il nous fait prendre conscience qu'une véritable révolution est en marche, celle de la longévité. Régime alimentaire, interactions sociales, exercice physique, absence de stress, connexion avec la nature : les scientifiques ont étudié les caractéristiques communes des "zones bleues", ces territoires où se concentrent les centenaires. Leurs secrets ont été percés, et peuvent donc être reproduits. Vivre plus de cent ans en bonne santé est à notre portée. Nous savons désormais comment influencer les aiguilles de notre horloge biologique. Nous pouvons décider de notre âge.

The Psychology of Music Performance Anxiety
Why are some performers exhilarated and energized about performing in public, while others feel a crushing sense of fear and dread, and experience public performance as an overwhelming challenge that must be endured? These are the questions addressed in this book, the first rigorous exposition of this complex phenomenon.
Analytical Ultracentrifugation
This book introduces analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) as a whole, covering essential theoretical and practical aspects as well as its applications in both biological and non-biological systems. Comprehensive characterizations of macromolecules in a solution are now routinely required not only for understanding the solution system but also for producing a solution with better properties. Analytical ultracentrifugation is one of most powerful and reliable techniques for studying the biophysical behavior of solutes in solution. In the last few years, there have been steady advances made in hardware, software, and applications for AUC. This book provides chapters that cover everything essent...
Sensitive Skin Syndrome
Sensitive skin is a widely reported condition where there is subjective cutaneous hyper-reactivity to environmental factors. Progress has been made in many aspects of the background science that will help clinicians in their management of patients presenting with the condition. This new text sums up the advances in thinking on pathophysiology, classification, methods of investigation, and the different susceptibilities of different types of skin.
