It delves into how Jackson revolutionized dance through innovative techniques and groundbreaking choreography, influencing generations of performers. The book examines his unique dance vocabulary, including his mastery of isolations and the iconic moonwalk, demonstrating how these moves became integral to popular culture. One intriguing aspect highlighted is how Jackson fused various dance styles with his understanding of visual media, solidifying his status as a transformative figure in modern dance.

It then breaks down specific elements of his dance techniques, such as his pioneering use of the moonwalk and incorporation of elements from jazz, tap, and street dance. The analysis extends to his music videos, revealing how they amplified his dance moves and cultural messages. Finally, it examines Jackson's lasting legacy on contemporary artists, making this book valuable for dance students, choreographers, and anyone interested in the performing arts.

    When you sit down at a play, movie, or concert—or even in front of the TV or scrolling on your phone—you are taking part in one of the oldest and most mysterious forms of human behavior. Being part of an audience is an age-old experience that we all crave, one that has evolved from amphitheaters to screens. Right This Way is a pop history of audiences through the ages. Playbill editor Robert Viagas unfolds the unique aspects of what he calls “audiencing” with stories from the age of the Greeks to the world of Zoom. He walks through the different types of audiences and the history of their responses, what science has to say about how our brains respond to what they see and the reactions of the people around them, and why, during COVID-19, people risked a deadly virus to be part of a crowd. Right This Way explores what the audience experience brings us and how it may evolve in the 21st century.

    Music has been examined from multiple perspectives: as a product of human history, for example, or a product of human culture. But there is also a long tradition, intensified in recent decades, of thinking about music as a product of the human mind. Whether considering composition, performance, listening, or appreciation, the constraints and capabilities of the human mind play a formative role. The field that has emerged around this approach is known as the psychology of music.Written in a lively and accessible manner, this volume connects the science to larger questions about music that are of interest to practicing musicians, music therapists, musicologists, and the general public alike. For example: Why can one musical performance move an audience to tears, and another compel them to dance, clap, or snap along? How does a "hype" playlist motivate someone at the gym? And why is that top-forty song stuck in everyone's head?

    From the voice behind Ren, Stimpy, Doug, Bugs Bunny, nearly half the main Futurama characters, and much more, a revealing memoir of life before—and in front of—the mic 
      
    Billy West is one the most accomplished and beloved voice actors alive today. He's brought to life original animated characters like Stimpy from The Ren & Stimpy Show, Doug Funnie, and Philip J. Fry, Dr. Zoidberg, Zapp Brannigan, and Professor Farnsworth (and more) on Futurama. And he's played iconic characters like Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd in Space Jam, Popeye, and Woody Woodpecker. 
      
    Chances are, he's made you laugh many times. You might even know some of his lines by heart. 
      
    In Voice-A-Versa, West recounts his remarkable life in show business and the circuitous route that got him there, from a radio-call in contest that led to skits on morning radio in Boston, to a one-off appearance on The Howard Stern Show that turned into a regular role, to a big move to Hollywood, and legendary roles working with other talented creators. 
      
    But West's life story is deeper and darker than that, and this memoir will reveal the traumatic upbringing that scarred and shaped him, and which gave birth to the "Billy-verse" of voices. 
      
    “Billy West is the kind of genius you have to write about in the plural. He’s not just a brilliant actor, he’s a hundred brilliant actors. And this hilarious book will give you the lowdown on Billy’s wild lives and unforgettable voices, and how those fevered brains of his crack us all up.”—MATT GROENING
