Are you worried about getting dementia in later life or do you have a relative or friend who already has dementia? Are you interested in caring for people with dementia? This book will prove invaluable in putting your mind at rest. You can have dementia and be happy, and many people living with dementia in care homes are happy.

The Dementia Experience

This book is a collection of 45 beautifully crafted poems written over a period of several years inspired by people from all walks of life. The final seven poems are written for people living with a dementia and are based upon my experiences of caring for them, something I thoroughly enjoy.

Recentring Asia forces the reader to rethink the centre not as a single site towards which all is oriented, but as a zone of encounter, exchange and contestation.

This book is the first to explore style and spectacle in glam popular music performance from the 1970s to the present day, and from an international perspective. Focus is given to a number of representative artists, bands, and movements, as well as national, regional, and cultural contexts from around the globe. Approaching glam music performance and style broadly, and using the glam/glitter rock genre of the early 1970s as a foundation for case studies and comparisons, the volume engages with subjects that help in defining the glam phenomenon in its many manifestations and contexts. Glam rock, in its original, term-defining inception, had its birth in the UK in 1970/71, and featured at its forefront acts such as David Bowie, T. Rex, Slade, and Roxy Music. Termed "glitter rock" in the US, stateside artists included Alice Cooper, Suzi Quatro, The New York Dolls, and Kiss. In a global context, glam is represented in many other cultures, where the influences of early glam rock can be seen clearly. In this book, glam exists at the intersections of glam rock and other styles (e.g., punk, metal, disco, goth). Its performers are characterized by their flamboyant and theatrical appearance (clothes, costumes, makeup, hairstyles), they often challenge gender stereotypes and sexuality (androgyny), and they create spectacle in popular music performance, fandom, and fashion. The essays in this collection comprise theoretically-informed contributions that address the diversity of the world’s popular music via artists, bands, and movements, with special attention given to the ways glam has been influential not only as a music genre, but also in fashion, design, and other visual culture.

In his brief career, Wes Montgomery completely revolutionized jazz guitar. On the Riverside recording Boss Guitar Wes demonstrates why he is still considered as one of the finest artists of the jazz guitar. Studies of Wes' incredible solos, his melodic, rhythmic and harmonic approaches will prove beneficial to any guitarist with interest in jazz. It is no wonder that he has influenced so many of today's great artists, and continues to inspire the future jazz guitarists. This note-for-note guitar transcription of Wes Montgomery's legendary recording Boss Guitar, contains not only the melody lines and solos, but also Wes' chord choices during organ solos. This gives you authentic transcriptions of six of the finest tunes on this record. Every single note played by Wes is transcribed in both standard and tablature notation. Includes: 'The Trick Bag', 'Fried Pies' - a beautiful interpretation of 'Days of Wine and Roses' - and more.

This multidisciplinary collection examines the connections between education, migration and translation across school and higher education sectors, and a broad range of socio-geographical contexts. Organised around the themes of knowledge, language, mobility, and practice, it brings together studies from around the world to offer a timely critique of existing practices that privilege some ways of knowing and communicating over others. With attention to issues of internationalisation, forced migration, minorities and indigenous education, this volume asks how the dominance of English in education might be challenged, how educational contexts that privilege bi- and multi-lingualism might be re-imagined, what we might learn from existing educational practices that privilege minority or indigenous languages, and how we might exercise ‘linguistic hospitality’ in a world marked by high levels of forced migration and educational mobility. As such, it will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in education, migration and intercultural communication.
