It's the Thought That Matters... Literally!
Psychotherapist David Ian Rogers believes that we see with our minds and not with our eyes. This is how powerful our thoughts are. They can actually make us blind to reality. "The perfect example is the everyday occurrence of not being able to locate the butter or the cheese in the fridge, even though it is right in front of us." Why does this happen? If our mind thinks something is not there, it will not appear to be there, even when it plainly is there for all to see. It's the Thought that Matters... Literally! shows how our thoughts can move us toward or away from our goals in our everyday lives. Its a case of "I think I can," as in The Little Engine That Could. David Ian Rogers highlights how most mental illnesses, or any other disease between the mind and body, is created and resolved by the thoughts we choose to use to describe our experiences from moment to moment. Find out how to harness this understanding, and to free yourself from emotional and physical problems, using the books simple ideas and concepts.

Popular Music Scenes and Cultural Memory
This volume explores the ways in which music scenes are not merely physical spaces for the practice of collective musical life but are also inscribed with and enacted through the articulation of cultural memory and emotional geography. The book draws on empirical data collected in cites throughout Australia. In terms of understanding the relationship between music scenes and participants, much of the existing popular music literature tends to avoid one key aspect of scene: its predominant past-tense and memory-based nature. Nascent music scenes may be emergent and on-going but their articulation in the present is often based on past events, ideas and histories. There is a noticeable gap between the literature concerning popular music ethnography and the growing body of work on cultural memory and emotional geography. This book is a study of the conceptual formation and use of music scenes by participants. It is also an investigation of the structures underpinning music scenes more generally.
