Reviews

Julie Dunbar's Women, Music, Culture is not only an outstanding introduction related to women in music, but also an excellent collection and presentation of many examples concerning a wide range of historical subjects, as well as contemporary musical genres and fields. The book is supplemented by questions for critical thinking and discussion, as well as ideas for further research; therefore, this publication provides basic and ideal working materials in undergraduate courses. Christa Brustle, Heidelberg University, Germany Women, Music, Culture is an excellent introductory undergraduate text that frames womens' contributions to music in a global context, seriously examining a vast array of art and popular music within and outside of western culture.
