Reviews

It is really refreshing to see the inclusion of topics, such as, disability, gender and sexuality, and sexual violence, that have been under-represented in mainstream texts. A read of the 'acknowledgements, hopes and dreams' section shows that this was a concerted effort on the part of the editors to redress the balance of findings towards more inclusivity and diversity. This is something we should celebrate, and I hope we see more initiatives like this in future collections. The result is a book that manages to possess both breadth and depth. It is interesting, topical, and accessible. As such, it will appeal to a broad cross-section of practitioners working with young people, and scholars researching adolescents' musical lives.
