The Bloomsbury Handbook of Rock Music Research is the first
comprehensive academic survey of the field of rock music as it
stands today. More than 50 years into its life and we still ask -
what is rock music, why is it studied, and how does it work, both
as music and as cultural activity? This volume draws together 37 of
the leading academics working on rock to provide answers to these
questions and many more. The text is divided into four major
sections: practice of rock (analysis, performance, and recording);
theories; business of rock; and social and culture issues. Each
chapter combines two approaches, providing a summary of current
knowledge of the area concerned as well as the consequences of that
research and suggesting profitable subsequent directions to take.
This text investigates and presents the field at a level of depth
worthy of something which has had such a pervasive influence on the
lives of millions.
