Editorial Reviews
Review
"[The writing] was the book's principle strength. It is a truly accessible book. . . . Students might even become better writers by reading this textbook! . . . It's probably alone in its field in this respect, and I can't praise it enough. . . . Students can learn with this book, and I don't say that about many textbooks."
"Finally a textbook that examines the history if music in the wider context of Western civilization. The reader gets a clear sense of how music functioned in society."

DAMAGED,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Music in Western Civilization, Media Update (with Resource Center Printed Access Card) (Hardcover)
I received this book today and opened it to find it quite damaged. Online it said very good condition. I don't think water damaged is considered good condition... http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/4589/img0555vk.jpg I don't have time to return the book but it's a shame that I'm going to lose almost all resale value....

Best Music History Text Yet,
By Michael David Jordan, Jr. (EIGHT MILE, ALABAMA, US) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Music in Western Civilization, Media Update (with Resource Center Printed Access Card) (Hardcover)
WONDERFUL textbook. It is better written, and easier to read, than any other music history textbook I've encountered. I enjoyed the Resource Center and used it often in my graduate coursework. I'd recommend it to anyone wishing to learn more about music, or to any collegiate teacher looking for a better music history textbook for their class.
