Taking a cue from Erving Goffmana s classic work, Asylums, Tia DeNora develops a novel interdisciplinary framework for music, health and wellbeing.

Moreover, she suggests that the promotion of health and more specifically, mental health, involves a great deal more than a concern with medication, genetic predispositions, clinical and neuro-scientific procedures. Adopting a holistic, interactionist focus, Music...

Making Sense of Reality
ISBN: 9781446202005 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What is reality and how do we make sense of it in everyday life? Why do some realities seem more real than others, and what of seemingly contradictory and multiple realities? This book considers reality as we represent, perceive and experience it. It suggests that the realities we take as 'real' are the result of real-time, situated practices that draw on and draw together many things - technologies and objects, people, gestures, meanings and media. Examining these practices illuminates reality (or rather our sense of it) as always 'virtually real', that is simplified and artfully produced....
