Why We Like Music
Ranging widely through discoveries in acoustics, emotion, healing, cognition, neuroscience, and infant development, Silvia Bencivelli covers the state of the art in research about our relationship with music and presents several possible conclusions.
Europa28
In collaboration with Hay Festival and Wom@rts. Introduced by Laura Bates, founder of the Everyday Sexism Project. ‘To be European,’ writes Leïla Slimani, ‘is to believe that we are, at once, diverse and united, that the Other is different but equal.’ Despite these high ideals, however, there is a growing sense that Europe needs to be fixed, or at the least seriously rethought. The clamour of rising nationalism – alongside widespread feelings of disenfranchisement – needs to be addressed if the dreams of social cohesion, European integration, perhaps even democracy are to be preserved. This anthology brings together 28 acclaimed women writers, artists, scientists and entrepreneu...
Music, Evolution, and the Harmony of Souls
Music is central to human cultural and intellectual experience. It is vitally important for the welfare of human society and - this book argues - should become more widely accepted in our community as a mainstream educational and therapeutic tool. This book explores the importance of music throughout human evolution, and its continued relevance to modern-day human society. Throughout, the emphasis is on the origin of music and how (and where) it is processed in our brains, exploring in detail the genetic and cultural evolution of modern, loquacious humans, how we may have evolved with unique neural and cognitive architecture, and why two complementary but distinct communication systems - lan...
All Walls Collapse
The history of walls – as a way to keep people in or out – is also the history of people managing to get around, over and under them. From the Berlin Wall and the Mexico–US border, to the barbed wire fences of Bangladesh’s refugee camps, the short stories in this anthology explore the barriers that have sought to divide communities and nations, and their traumatic effects on people’s lives and histories. At a time when more walls are being built than are being brought down, All Walls Collapse brings together writing from across national, ethnic and linguistic borders, challenging the political impulse to separate and segregate, and celebrating the role of literature in traversing division.

Intercorporeality
This book draws inspiration from Maurice Merleau-Ponty's concept of intercorporeality to offer a new, multidisciplinary perspective on the body. By drawing attention to the body's ability to simultaneously sense and be sensed, Merleau-Ponty transcends the object-subject divide and describes how bodies are about, into, and within other bodies. Such inherent relationality constitutes the essence of intercorporeality, and the chapters in this book examine such relationality from a host of diverse perspectives. The book begins with an introductory chapter in which the editors review the current research on bodily interaction, and introduce the notion of intercorporeality as a potentially integra...
CAMION BLANC
Unique en son genre, ce livre s’adresse à tous les mélomanes qui veulent comprendre comment et pourquoi s’est créée et perdure leur relation intime avec le rock ou les autres styles apparentés, depuis qu’une chanson, un album ou un groupe a changé - et change encore - leur vision de la vie, en leur apportant ce flot de sentiments puissants, parfois contraires, mais toujours indéfinissables. Synthétisant les travaux les plus récents de neuroscientifiques internationaux, cette anthologie précise aussi les raisons subjectives et sensibles qui constituent les fondements du bonheur généré par l’écoute des musiques actuelles. Y est notamment établi le lien avec la création ...
La musicoterapia tra pedagogia e didattica
Con questo lavoro si è tentato di approfondire gli aspetti delle difficoltà di comunicazione dei bambini, intendendo con questo termine una condizione di disagio che si manifesta soprattutto e in particolare sul piano relazionale, comportamentale e degli apprendimenti. Poiché la musicoterapia offre la possibilità di utilizzare un linguaggio facilitante perché non verbale, anche i bambini più svantaggiati sotto il profilo cognitivo hanno la possibilità di partecipare allo stesso modo degli altri. Quindi spariscono le differenti capacità ed emergono le persone.
