Essential Economics started off its life as a set of class notes,
given to students, to help introduce them to the new subject of
Economics. Students often used these notes to help them prepare for
final IB Diploma exams. Since then the notes have expanded into the
present slim volume Essential Economics. The aim is to cover the
key ideas precisely and succinctly, and in a memorable way, in
contrast to much longer textbooks which are often unread by
students.
A brief biography of Janet Nunley, a child of Ashland Kentucky in
the 1940's.
Anyone who has ever seen a two-year-old start bouncing to a beat knows that music speaks to us on a very deep level. But it took celebrated teacher and music visionary Don Campbell to show us just how deep, with his landmark book The Mozart Effect. Stimulating, authoritative, and often lyrical, The Mozart Effect has a simple but life-changing message: music is medicine for the body, the mind, and the soul. Campbell shows how modern science has begun to confirm this ancient wisdom, finding evidence that listening to certain types of music can improve the quality of life in almost every respect. Here are dramatic accounts of how music is used to deal with everything from anxiety to cancer, high blood pressure, chronic pain, dyslexia, and even mental illness. Always clear and compelling, Campbell recommends more than two dozen specific, easy-to-follow exercises to raise your spatial IQ, "sound away" pain, boost creativity, and make the spirit sing!
