On Kindness -- Paperback
by Phillips, Adam/ Taylor, Barbara
MYR 39.95

What is kindness? Does it make us happier? And does it have a place in a selfish world? Psychoanalyst Adam Phillips and historian Barbara Taylor present an elegant, thoughtful and concise analysis of kindness in history, in life and in the modern world. Suggesting that acts of kindness occur when we are at our most open and honest, they ask why it is that our faith in kindness has been shaken – and why we are all too ready to believe that antagonism has taken its place.

Cremona Violins : A Physicist's Quest for Secrets of Stradivari
by Wali, Kameshwar C.
MYR 133.00

Cremona violins occupy a unique and storied place in violin history. This book contains a brief account of that history the rise and fall of the Cremonese art of violin making that dominated over two centuries. It is primarily devoted, however, to the physics behind violin acoustics, specifically the research of William F Jack Fry over the past several decades. The gradual evolution of his ideas leading to a holistic approach is chronicled, in sharp contrast to the conventional reductionist analysis. With rare insights, he has come closer than anyone before in reproducing the tonal qualities of the great Italian masters. This historic achievement makes the book extremely valuable for violin makers and violin researchers, enabling young and aspiring violinists to own excellent sounding instruments with the acoustical marvels of the old at affordable prices. The accompanying video features Frys demonstration of how and why minute changes in thickness graduations make predictable changes in tonal qualities of an instrument.
