David McGill has assembled an exhaustive study that uses the musical concepts of the legendary Marcel Tabuteau as a starting point from which to develop musical thought. McGill methodically explains the frequently misunderstood "Tabuteau number system" and its relationship to note grouping-the lifeblood of music. The controversial issue of baroque performance practice is also addressed. Instrumentalists and vocalists alike will find that many of the ideas presented in this book will help develop their musicianship as well as their understanding of what makes a performance "musical."

So You Want to be a CSI?

Crime scene investigation isn't an&nbsp;academic, cut-and-dry process. There is no set of ideal procedures that universally applies to all crime scene processing.&nbsp; 
Isn't it time for a textbook that reflected that? 
So You Want to be a CSI?&nbsp;presents Crime Scene Investigation as students would encounter it in the real world, where inclement weather, poor scene security, lack of proper equipment and packing materials, and rodent-invested crime scenes all impact the role of the CSI. It combines the expertise of its three authors, who have 45 years of combined crime scene investigation experience, to prepare students for the field, dismantling the myths of the profession created by television shows and the media. Chapters include four overarching, fundamental topics:&nbsp;Before Entering the Crime Scene, Biological Evidence, Crime Scene Photography, and Crime Scene Search. 
So You Want to be a CSI?&nbsp;not only provides a foundation for future crime scene investigators, but it also authentically explains the daily challenges and rewards of this fascinating career.\nIn addition, there is also a virtual component available consisting of&nbsp;virtual crime scenes&nbsp;that allow students to put course concepts into practice.&nbsp;\nCheck out author Leggie Boone's podcast appearance!
