Gardens provoke thought and engagement in ways that are often overlooked. This book shines new light on long-held assumptions about gardens and proposes novel ways in which we might reconsider them. The author challenges traditional views of how we experience gardens, how we might think of gardens as works of art, and how the everyday materials of gardens – plants, light, water, earth – may become artful. The author provides a detailed analysis of Tupare, a garden in New Zealand, and uses it as source material for his analysis of the philosophical issues art gardens raise. His new account of gardens highlights the polymodal, multi-sensual, and improvisatory character of the garden experience, it offers an ontological comparison between gardens and humans and other animals, and it explains how identical plants, and arrangements of plants, may be mundane when encountered beyond the garden but artful, meaningful, and aesthetically valuable when experienced within it.

Toto úžasné putování hudební psychologií a hudební vědou je perfektní knihou pro každého milovníka melodií. Hudba hraje velmi důležitou roli v našem emočním, intelektuálním, a dokonce i fyzickém životě. Má vliv na to, jakým způsobem se chováme, pracujeme, relaxujeme a vnímáme. Dokáže nás rozesmát nebo rozplakat, protože nám pomáhá utvářet vztahy s lidmi kolem nás, a dokonce má moc zmírnit řadu zdravotních potíží. Písně, které máte rádi (či nenávidíte, a dokonce i ty, které vnímáte naprosto neutrálně), nedotváří jen soundtrack k vašemu životu – ve skutečnosti jej pomáhají tvarovat. Vědec a hudebník John Powell se v této knize vrací hluboko do desetiletí psychologických a sociologických studií s cílem odpovědět na otázku „Proč nás hudba tak hluboce ovlivňuje?“. Svým uvolněným, konverzačním stylem zkoumá všechny aspekty hudební psychologie, od toho, jak hudba pomáhá miminkům vytvářet pouto s matkami, až po způsoby, jakými hudba může změnit chuť vína nebo vás přimět, abyste trávili více času v restauracích.
