Book Description
Excerpt from Twentieth Century Practice, Vol. 5 of 20: An International Encyclopedia of Modern Medical Science by Leading Authorities of Europe and America; Diseases of the Skin In contemplating the integument it should not be simply in the light of an outward protective covering to the body, as something apart from the general economy which can be studied by and for itself alone. It should be looked upon rather as one of the impor tant organs of the system, not only because of its excretory functions which are of such consequence, and of its Office as a regulator of the bodily warmth, but also as being intimately associated with many internal structures and closely connected through its multitude of nerves and vessels with vital parts and as having to do with vital function. The integument may be defined as a complex, elastic, membranous organ of fibrous structure which completely invests the body, being continuous at all the natural orifices with the mucous membrane, or inner skin, and through its own deep connective tissue with the underlying structures throughout. Besides the hair and nails, which are looked upon as appendages, the Skin possesses systems of glands, vessels, nerves, lymphatics, muscles, and deposits of pigment.

Book Description
Twentieth-Century Music Theory and Practice introduces a number of tools for analyzing a wide range of twentieth-century musical styles and genres. It includes discussions of harmony, scales, rhythm, contour, post-tonal music, set theory, the twelve-tone method, and modernism. Recent developments involving atonal voice leading, K-nets, nonlinearity, and neo-Reimannian transformations are also engaged. While many of the theoretical tools for analyzing twentieth century music have been devised to analyze atonal music, they may also provide insight into a much broader array of styles. This text capitalizes on this idea by using the theoretical devices associated with atonality to explore music inclusive of a large number of schools and contains examples by such stylistically diverse composers as Paul Hindemith, George Crumb, Ellen Taffe Zwilich, Steve Reich, Michael Torke, Philip Glass, Alexander Scriabin, Ernest Bloch, Igor Stravinsky, Béla Bartók, Sergei Prokofiev, Arnold Schoenberg, Claude Debussy, György Ligeti, and Leonard Bernstein. This textbook also provides a number of analytical, compositional, and written exercises. The aural skills supplement and online aural skills trainer on the companion website allow students to use theoretical concepts as the foundation for analytical listening.
