%X The boldest element of Music: A Social Experience is the idea that music is meaningful through its social role. The text offers a topic-driven, semester-long course of study for non-music majors that is inclusive of popular and world musics, as well as Western art music. The accompanying instructor¡¯s manual was writen by the authors, who are leading thinkers on the scholarship of pedagogy, and is of tremendous value. The supplemental online materials, Pearson¡¯s MySearchLab, however, are still evolving.
