Perspectives on Music
For courses in Music Appreciation taken by non-majors. Using unique, interactive Listening Activities and focusing equally on American and European, popular and classical music styles, this text helps students learn how to listen to music any kind of music more actively, and to articulate their observations clearly and persuasively. An absence of musical notation, an accessible writing style, an abundance of stimulating visuals, and in-depth coverage of each style easily draw those with no musical background into the rich and varied world of music they are likely to encounter both in and out of concert halls.

The Culture Map
An international business expert helps you understand and navigate cultural differences in this "enlightening" (Foreign Affairs) and practical guide, perfect for both your work and personal life. Americans precede anything negative with three nice comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans get straight to the point; Latin Americans and Asians are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians think the best boss is just one of the crowd. It's no surprise that when they try and talk to each other, chaos breaks out. In The Culture Map, INSEAD professor Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together. She provides a field-tested model for decoding how cultural differences impact international business, and combines a smart analytical framework with practical, actionable advice.
