Curbishley B: To Be Or Not To Be

To Be Or Not To Be

A Life in Music

In Common

This book pays homage to a rock band that has most influenced alternative culture, the Grateful Dead. It critically discussing the evolution of the libertarian spirit in the USA, which was born and developed in the 1960s and merged in the last three decades into a libertarian ideology, based on individual freedom, antistatalism and the primacy of the spirit of the self-made man. Examining how this transition was functional, on the one hand, to high-tech digital innovation and, on the other, to the spirit of new platform capitalism. Andrea Fumagalli suggests that the process of capturing the libertarian spirit for capitalist purposes, which represents one of the clearest examples of "life subsumption", the acknowledgment that the life of individuals at the very moment that it triggers processes of social cooperation is a potential source of subversive behaviour, and how this can turn into a powerful tool for today's capitalist valorisation.

Let's Make Things Better

No sex. No kids. No future? When Tom Feiling moved to Tokyo as a student in the early nineties, Japan was a beacon of the future: a rising superpower, a technology giant, a global symbol of prosperity, civility and success. When he returned twenty-four years later, the country was still a sign of things to come-but, he began to realize, it was no longer a beacon. It was a warning. This is a unique account of contemporary Japan, which travels from the quiet of its furthest flung villages to the aspiration and dynamism of its cities. It tells the story of how, from the mid-seventies onwards, Japanese society unknowingly embarked on a vast, silent process of transformation that is still unfolding today. It is still peaceful; it is still prosperous. But the Japanese population is dwindling at an alarming rate. As things stand, Japan's populace will shrink by a third with each new generation; by 2070 it will have lost the equivalent of the entire population outside of Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya. Travelling through shrines and bars, rice fields and mango farms, coffee shops and old peoples' homes, Feiling meets with those affected by, and driving, this transformation. Through countless interviews and extensive research, he weaves together a powerful account of how and why men and women are ceasing to pair off and have kids. He reveals how sexual appetites and behaviours are both shaped by, and reshaping the evolving economy, and he considers both the dangers and the opportunities of the rise in solo living in Japan-and beyond. For although this is a Japanese story, it will soon be playing out all around the world. A low birth rate, an ageing society, and a shrinking population are visible everywhere from Spain to South Korea. Japan is simply further down the line. So this really is a journey to the future: sex robots and herbivorous men are now Japanese phenomena, but they may soon be coming for us all.

If you can't change a system from the inside, you have no choice but to try and change it from the outside. That act starts with telling my own story as a brown Muslim woman in the Met. 'Nusrit Mehtab has gone through the Met like a force of nature...Her story is one worth reading.'HH Wendy Joseph KC, author of Unlawful Killings'Off The Beat lifts the filthy carpets at the Met Police and shines a light on the darkness below. Gripping, fascinating and crucial to the future of UK policing.'Alice Vinten, author of On the Line. 'A disturbing account of institutionalised sexism and racism in the Metropolitan police told from the perspective of a tough and fiercely ambitious officer who strove to rise up through the ranks'Harriet Wistrich, author of Sister in LawWhen Nusrit Mehtab joined the Metropolitan Police, the organization was rife with racism and misogyny. Officers refused to patrol with her, or even call her by her name. Her attempts to get promoted were met with hostility and ridicule, and she was subjected to cruel pranks. As the years passed and her seniority grew, Nusrit was dismayed to find that these problems got worse, not better. In this searing memoir, she recounts her thirty years in the Met and the appalling treatment she endured. Now lecturing young recruits in criminology and mentoring BAME officers, Nusrit is confident that we can mould the next generation to create a more inclusive police force, safer for both the officers and the public. Full of deeply shocking stories from the heart of the organization, Off the Beat shines a light on an institution that has lost sight of its mission to protect us and pleads the case for a brighter and safer future.

Off The Beat

Ashgate Contemporary Thinkers on Critical Musicology Series

This collection of studies represents the range of Rosand's contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works. Taken together, the articles demonstrate how Rosand has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

This collection of studies by Ellen Rosand represents the range of her contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.  Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works--from its function in representing the ideals of the Republic of Venice through its essential role in the emerging genre of opera, from the expressive mechanics of Monteverdi and Cavalli to those of Handel and Vivaldi.  With methodological flexibility, Rosand's analyses are responsive to the works themselves.  Exploring the mimetic significance of particular formal motifs and scenic conventions, the intimate relationship of music and text, or a composer's dramatic choices, discovering a new musical personality (Barbara Strozzi) or the historical and cultural circumstances, the practical and creative dynamics of an emerging dramatic art (opera in Venice), she has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

Sin embargo, su camino hacia el éxitocomenzó en el extremo equivocado de un arma, cuando un tiroteo fortuito lo puso cara a cara con la mortalidad y acabó con su sueño de convertirse en jugador profesional de béisbol. Con un hijo en camino y meses de dolorosa recuperación por delante, Ramón tuvo que encontrar un nuevo camino, así que puso sus miras en su otra pasión: la música.En esta colección de lecciones aprendidas en su ya larga carrera de tres décadas, DY comparte las raíces de su firme convicción de que llegaría a ser más que sus compañeros del barrio cuyas vidas habían caído en la delincuencia. ReaDY muestra cómo transformó su historia y anima a sus lectores a hacer lo mismo. Centrándose en el enfrentamiento del miedo, la confianza en la fe, la dedicación a la identidad cultural, la conexión con la familia, el aprendizaje constante y mucho más, este es un libro que utiliza la historia de Daddy Yankee para inspirar y humanizar a una de las mayores estrellas de la música del mundo.&nbsp;ReaDY!Through intimate anecdotes and profound reflections, ReaDY! chronicles Daddy Yankee’s gripping journey of resilience and faith while imparting lessons on navigating setbacks, hardships, and tests of strength to transform your life.Forever altered by a single event, Daddy Yankee offers an inspirational guide to building the life you dream of in a book threaded through with the story of his rise from the streets of Puerto Rico to international superstardom.As the ambassador of Reggaeton, Daddy Yankee has sold millions of albums and performed all over the world, melding cultures and popularizing a style of music that he helped create. His path to success, however, began at the wrong end of a gun, when a random shooting brought him face-to-face with mortality and ended his dream of becoming a professional baseball player. With a child on the way and months of painful recovery ahead of him, Ramon had to find a new path, so he set his sights on his other passion—making music.In this collection of lessons learned in his now three-decade long career, DY shares the roots of his firm belief that he would become more than his peers in the barrio who had fallen into lives of crime. ReaDY shows how he transformed his story—and empowers his readers to do the same. Focusing on facing fear, relying on faith, a dedication to cultural identity, connection to family, constant learning, and more, this is a book that uses Daddy Yankee’s story to inspire, and to humanize one of the biggest music stars in the world.
