Music Asylums

Wellbeing Through Music in Everyday Life

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Taking a cue from Erving Goffman's classic work, Asylums, the author develops a novel interdisciplinary framework for music, health and wellbeing. Considering health and illness both in medical contexts and in the often-overlooked realm of everyday life, she argues that these identities are by no means mutually exclusive.
