  The Inner Game of music is that which takes place in the mind, played against such elusive opponents as nervousness, self doubt, and fear of failure. Using the same principles of "natural learning" W. Timothy Gallwey developed so successfully for tennis, golf, and skiing and applying them to his own field, noted musician Barry Green shows how to acknowledge and overcome these internal obstacles in order to bring a new quality to the experience and learning of music. It is also ideal for those who don't play an instrument but who feel their appreciation of music will be enhanced if they understand more about the process of playing. 
   
   
   
  In precise, easy to understand language, Green and Gallwey explain how natural skills can be nurtured and enhanced, and through a series of special exercises they demonstrate the ways in which musicians can achieve exact intonation, artistic phrasing, and improved technique. 
   
   
   
  Ensemble playing, improvisation, composition and creativity, and listening skills are discussed throughout. 
   
   
   
  A methodology with a proven track record, this will be invaluable to anyone seriously interested in music, professional or amateur, composer, performer, or an appreciative listener.

  "Christopher Columbus and the Afrikan Holocaust," by John Henrik Clarke, shatters the hero's-journey narrative surrounding Columbus, exposing him as an architect of exploitation. The book recasts the "discovery" of America as a brutal invasion, paving the way for centuries of Indigenous suffering and laying the groundwork for the African Holocaust – the transatlantic slave trade. 
   
  Clarke argues that neither Indigenous nor African subjugation was incidental. Instead, they were calculated moves fueled by insatiable European greed. The book deconstructs the myth of benevolent colonization, revealing its core as a resource-hungry machine reliant on forced labor and extraction. This system, christened "European capitalism," thrived on the dehumanization and exploitation of entire populations. 
   
  Clarke doesn't merely paint a grim picture; he also illuminates resistance. He highlights the agency of colonized peoples, their unwavering fight for freedom despite unimaginable suffering. This Pan-Africanist perspective weaves together the struggles of both Indigenous and African peoples, demonstrating the interconnectedness of global oppression. 
   
  Beyond historical analysis, the book serves as a potent call to action. Clarke urges readers to confront the legacies of colonialism and slavery, dismantling the very systems that perpetuate inequality. He doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths, demanding critical examination of narratives that continue to shape our understanding of the world. 
   
  This book is not for the faint of heart. It confronts sensitive historical events with unflinching honesty, potentially exposing readers to disturbing descriptions of violence and oppression. Yet, through its unflinching analysis and unwavering call for justice, "Christopher Columbus and the Afrikan Holocaust" offers a crucial roadmap for navigating the complex legacies of the past and building a more equitable future.
