I would just like to write a review on the AB Guide to Music Theory, a book written by Eric Taylor in conjunction with the syllabus for the graded exams as run for the theory of music by the Associated Board of the Royal School of Music (ABRSM). This review is on Part One, or rather the book that sets out what is covered for Grades one to five. And for those who are interested, Part Two deals with Grades five to eight although there is not an actual area or space to write about this on Ciao for now. But in the meantime, let us return to Part One.
As already noted, it is published by the ABRSM to cover thheir syllabus for the theory of music exams and was published first in 1989 although there have been many subsequent publishings since this time.
The contents of the book are laid out in this manner:
Preface

Advantages: Well written, informative, thorough and entertaining Disadvantages: Could be heavy if you don't like Political philosophy
the American Civil War and questioning whether people have the right to the property they see and feel is their own can be devisive. Jonathan Wolff in this chapter loses some of his even-handedness at times when defending Rawls's theory of justice, but it is no more than a passionate debate which becomes grounded when criticisms of Rawls are presented.

The final gem of the book however is the guide to further reading. If you intend to study a course related to Politics this list is invaluable and chances are you will be buying the Wolff book anyway (especially if you start Politics ...
Advantages: A funny and well told story Disadvantages: OTT intro, and missing questions.
Despite this audio recording being available several years before a printed version of the story, I first came across "LT's Theory of Pets in its' written form, when it appeared in King's most recent short story collection, "Everything's Eventual", in 2002. I've previously called it "entertaining", but not the best, and that I had no intention of buying the audio version of it, as I didn't think it was worth any further outlay. This is doubly true because it's read by Stephen King himself, and my previous experiences of his reading have been none too favourable, either. He has a droning, almost monotonous voice, which takes something away from the story.
Of course, none of this left me averse to borrowing the tape. So when it was offered to me by a friend of mine called Nikki, a person for whom Stephen King could have written ...
