Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Cheating the Junk-Pile' is a comprehensive guide to the selection, care, and maintenance of modern household equipment. Written during an era of rapid technological advancement in the domestic sphere, Ethel R. Peyser provides readers with practical advice on how to evaluate appliances and home systems to ensure they remain functional and efficient for years to come. The work covers a wide range of topics, from the intricacies of kitchen ranges and refrigeration to the complexities of plumbing, heating, and lighting.With a focus on consumer education, Peyser empowers the homeowner to look beyond superficial aesthetics and understand the mechanical integrity of their purchases. By demystifying the technology behind everyday conveniences, the book aims to prevent the premature disposal of valuable equipment-hence the titular goal of 'cheating the junk-pile.' This volume serves as both a fascinating historical document of early 20th-century domestic science and a timeless testament to the importance of informed consumerism and meticulous home management.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'How Music Grew' is a comprehensive exploration of the evolution of music, tracing its development from the earliest primitive rhythms to the complex symphonic structures of the early twentieth century. Written by Marion Bauer and Ethel Peyser, this work offers an engaging narrative that bridges the gap between technical musicology and accessible historical storytelling. The authors delve into the origins of various instruments, the rise of polyphony, and the profound impact of cultural shifts on musical expression across different eras.The book covers major movements including the medieval period, the Renaissance, and the Romantic era, while also highlighting the vital contributions of iconic composers. It explores how diverse civilizations influenced the soundscapes we recognize today. By examining folk traditions, the birth of opera, and the development of the modern orchestra, 'How Music Grew' provides readers with a holistic understanding of how music has functioned as a universal human language. This classic text remains a valuable resource for students, music lovers, and anyone interested in the artistic journey of humanity's most evocative art form.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
