This book provides a wealth of ways of conceiving of bodily issues informing practice-based research. I appreciate the focus on and problematizing of the body, which I feel is largely missing from music literature. I also appreciate the emphasis on the sensory experience of music, rather than the technologies used...All in all, this is a worthwhile volume that should be of inspiration and use to practitioners and theorists for some time to come. --Annelie Nederberg, Journal of Music, Technology and Education
