Der Ton macht die Physik - das ist eine gelungene Mischung aus verstandlich dargestellter Wissenschaft und musikalischen Hintergrundinformationen, die die Welt des Musikhorens und -spielens mit allem Drum und Dran erlautert. Charles Taylor hat in vielen Vortragen, die er vor Kindern hielt, so viel Erfahrung gesammelt, da er den Stoff "e;kinderleicht"e; fast spielerisch verpackt, und ist als emeritierter Physikprofessor doch Wissenschaftler genug, um ihn absolut systematisch und auf dem heutigen Stand der Forschung zu diskutieren. Angefangen von den Grundlagen der Physik des Schalls, der Horphysiologie und der Instrumentenkunde arbeitet er sich uber die Entstehung und Verstarkung von musikalischen Tonen zu den einzelnen Instrumentengruppen vor. Diese werden dann der Reihe nach unter die Lupe genommen (Saiten-, Blas- und elektronische Instrumente). Schritt fur Schritt versteht der Leser immer besser, was hinter einem Mozartschen Klavierkonzert, einer Beethovensinfonie oder einem Schubertlied steht, weshalb Tonleitern zwar lastig, aber nichtsdestotrotz sinnvoll - vor allem fur Tasteninstrumente sind, warum das Gehirn das alles in Musikgenu umsetzt und vieles mehr. Ein Kapitel uber Raumakustik vervollstandigt die detailreiche und oft witzige Darstellung.

In this work you'll find the past and the present, the grumpy and the funny, the family and the country, and the political and the personal-all tied together by a search for the heart in the heart, the mystical center that binds us to the sacred in each other and the sacred above and around. Like the work of Jack Kerouac, Taylor's book moves beyond the grand secular tradition of modern writing into the unknowable landscapes of the spiritual.

In this memoir Dr. Charles Taylor chronicles with painful frankness his son's spiral downward into drug and alcohol abuse as well as Sebastian's recovery, though it was a long and difficult one. Dr. Taylor also examines with almost brutal honesty his own role in his son's self-destructive behavior. This is a book that parents of drug abusing children will find both touching and helpful.

Death opens the gates to resurrection. The pathways to faith are diverse, but all carry components of death and renewal. In Avenues of Faith: Conversations with Jonathan Guilbault, Charles Taylor takes readers through a handful of books that played a crucial role in shaping his posture as a believer, a process that involved leaving the old behind and embracing the new.In a dynamic interview-style structure, Taylor answers questions from Jonathan Guilbault about how each book has informed his thought. The five sections of Avenues of Faith briefly introduce authors and their principal works before delving into the associated discussion. Taylor and Guilbault engage Maurice Merleau-Ponty's Phenomenology of Perception, Friedrich Holderlin's poetry, Charles Baudelaire's The Flowers of Evil, Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov, and Brother Emile's Faithful to the Future: Listening to Yves Congar. By exploring themes such as faith, the church, freedom, language, philosophy, and more, this book engages both literary enthusiasts and spiritual seekers. Scholars of Taylor will recognize the philosopher's continuation of his reflections on modernity as he expresses his faith. Avenues of Faith gives readers unprecedented access to a world-renowned philosopher's reflections on the literary masterpieces that have shaped his life and scholarship and that continue to stand the test of time.
