  Now more than ever before, our homes need to be a place of comfort, a place to feel safe when we shut the door. Our homes are where we can truly be ourselves, unwind, and create special memories with our family and friends. Inspired by Danish design and traditions, Meik Wiking's beautiful book My Hygge Home shows us how to turn our home into a cozy sanctuary and live a bit like the happiest people in the world—the Danes.

With simple tips based on new research from the Happiness Institute in Copenhagen, this book reveals what makes a happy home: including the difference between space and size, the importance of lighting, and how to foster better connections with our loved ones. No matter how much space you have or what your budget is, Meik explains how you can use color, light, and space to create your happy place and celebrate coziness the Danish way.

  Building Inclusion: A Practical Guide to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in Architecture and the Built Environment is just that—a manual to support and provide essential guidance to the profession on these key issues. Acknowledging that the existence of EDI procedures does not necessarily ensure their use, it focuses on demonstrating behaviors that help create, implement, and enforce policies, procedures, and practices to deliver inclusion. 
   
   
   
  Written by Marsha Ramroop, former inaugural EDI director at the RIBA and award-winning EDI strategist, the book targets the pain points of talent attraction and retention, public sector procurement, community engagement, and inclusive design. It utilizes case studies from organizations across the sector and the world with successful EDI practices, as well as testimonials of lived experiences of discrimination which provide important insight to the listener. The book takes an intersectional approach, considering not just the separate identities of race, ethnicity, nationality, age, gender and sexual identity, disability, neurodiversity, and class but the overlap of these. 
   
   
   
  Clearly written and accessible, with key points at the end of each chapter, this book is essential for those in the profession seeking to implement EDI practices in their work and workplace.

  Richie and Mike provide direct practical guidance on the skills and knowledge necessary for jazz to be passed on and performed well. The conversational tone of the book makes for entertaining and worthwhile reading. Those who have been teaching jazz for a long time will appreciate Richie's stories and his fearless opinions on jazz including how the teaching and learning of it are evolving (for good and for bad). 
  For readers new to teaching, they will gain a perspective and perhaps some greater insight into jazz education that your students want from you and benefit from. 
  Justin DiCioccio of the Manhattan School of Music called it the best book on jazz education he's ever read. Why?Because of the stories that will capture student's attention on things like the art of jazz time (swing), dynamics, 'wrong' notes, the right amount of notes, and how the masters think about musicA view of what can and cannot be taught in the process of making students better jazz playersHow to be more motivating and effective with studentsA candid and pointed review of the film, Whiplash, and what it teaches us to defend against in our roles as jazz educatorsFly on the wall insight into one of Richie's most inspired trio recordings with George Mraz and Al Foster. 
  Students of jazz will appreciate:How to choose the right school for one's personal needs and ambitionsMany of the skills that musicians need in order to be successful that are not taught in the classroomHow best to use some of the more popular digital tools for learning and practicing jazzRichie's telling of the blow-by-blow experience of group interaction while recording the Tune "Nardis" with George Mraz and Al Foster 
  A chapter is dedicated to a review of the movie Whiplash, a film about a college jazz gig band led by a tyrannical conductor played by J.K. Simmons.
