Bee Revolt
If you think about it, we are all bees. You surely agree that we share many similarities with these wonderfully diverse insects. Sticking with that comparison like good honey, we can learn a lot about life from bees. For Carol the Bee, life is full of emotions, adventures, and ever-changing demands. Her supervisor, Dudley the Drone, continuously assigns more workload to Carol's stubborn and agreeable co-worker Bonnie and herself. However, during a trip to collect pollen, Carol decides that life can no longer consist of so much exploitation. Trying to change her life and the lives of every bee in the bee-hive of St. H. Comb, Carol sets out to experience adventures in her search for a less stressful, happier world. But change does not come peacefully, and Carol soon finds herself in direct conflict with Queen Bee Queerie, who wants to kill her. Will Carol succeed in helping Bonnie to change her attitude towards work, and will she be able to free St. H. Comb from exploitation?
The Internal Market Ideal
The Internal Market Ideal honours the pathbreaking work of Professor Stephen Weatherill, Jacques Delors Professor of European Law at the University of Oxford since 1998. For more than three decades, Professor Stephen Weatherill has been the dominant figure in internal market debates, shaping the European Union's Internal Market both at Oxford and internationally. Looming large in fields as disparate as consumer protection and sports law, his voice has guided how relevant laws and regulations are understood and how their varying virtues and pitfalls are perceived. A reference to his seminal work The Internal Market as a Legal Concept (OUP, 2016), the present volume is not simply a celebration...
Heiner Goebbels and Curatorial Composing after Cage
This Element introduces the notion of curatorial composing to account for certain musical practices that emerged from the 1960s as the founding concepts of music as an art – instituted in the modern era – were systematically dismantled. It raises the key question of how musical value and authority might be produced without recourse to an external principle, origin, transcendental framework, or other foundation. It argues that these practices do not dismiss the issue of value or simply relativise it but shift the paradigm to a curatorial concern for composing public encounters and staging events. The Element shows that Lydia Goehr's elaboration of the work-concept provides a framework that was transformed by John Cage in his work from 0'00” (1962) onwards. The Element then introduces Heiner Goebbels' practice and focus on his role as Artistic Director of the Ruhrtriennale (2012–14), which it argues was an extension of his curatorial composing.

Plunderphonics, 'pataphysics & Pop Mechanics
Where new music collides with contemporary pop (as opposed to jazz or classical), Plunderphonics explains the implications of the new wave of sonic appropriation.
Advances in Occupational Ergonomics and Safety
Ergonomics touches every man, woman and child each day of their lives whether they recognise it or not. Ergonomics (or lack of it) plays a more significant role in the lives of about two-thirds of the world s population over 10 years of age who work for one-third of their lives to make a living. There are 120 million occupational accidents and injuries and 200,000 fatalities each year according to WHO 95. Occupational accidents, injuries and fatalities are undesired events. The occupational activities are planned and designed, and executed with a purpose under supervision but accidents are not. Hence it stands to reason that better planning, design and execution will help to reduce these und...
