"Fresh and irreverent, funny and relatable, "This Shit Works" is a must read for anyone who''s ever died a little inside as they entered a room wearing a name tag." -Terri Trespicio, writer, speaker, and brand advisor "There''s a true gift in these pages to transform how you approach networking. Julie Brown gives you the tools to be yourself and create your power network." - Paula Rizzo, Author Listful Living, media consultant, speaker  The people you meet can change your life like nothing else. Networking is how you meet those people. Not the trading business cards and asking "What do you do?" kind of networking-the kind where you make the most extraordinary connections simply by being yourself and doing things you enjoy. (And, OK, with a tiny bit of homework and a smidge of strategy.) In this refreshingly entertaining and highly informative guide, Julie Brown shares her proven process for building a network. And not just any network, but one made of people who: ΓÇó     are happy to refer you to new clients ΓÇó     will take your phone call at any hour of the day or night ΓÇó    may even just end up going bungee jumping with you in     South Africa. Filled with honest stories, perhaps more than the occasional swear word, proven strategies, and targeted to-do lists, This Shit Works is a salty, modern version of How to Win Friends and Influence People.

Schoenberg and Redemption presents a new way of understanding Schoenberg's step into atonality in 1908. Reconsidering his threshold and early atonal works, as well as his theoretical writings and a range of previously unexplored archival documents, Julie Brown argues that Schoenberg's revolutionary step was in part a response to Wagner's negative charges concerning the Jewish influence on German music. In 1898, and especially 1908, Schoenberg's Jewish identity came into confrontation with his commitment to Wagnerian modernism to provide an impetus to his radical innovations. While acknowledging the broader turn-of-the-century Viennese context, Brown draws special attention to continuities between Schoenberg's work and that of Viennese moral philosopher Otto Weininger, himself an ideological Wagnerian. She also considers the afterlife of the composer's ideological position when, in the late 1920s and early 1930s, the concept of redeeming German culture of its Jewish elements took a very different turn.

The grotesque is one of art's most puzzling figures. In "The Miraculous Mandarin" and "Cantata Profana", Bartok engaged scenarios featuring either overtly grotesque bodies or closely related transformations and violations of the body. This book argues that Bartok's concerns with stylistic hybridity, the body, and the grotesque are inter-connected.
