修订一部深受读者欢迎的音乐通史，目的不是推倒重写，而是提高它的时代性。看惯前几版的读者，会觉得此书不论外貌或者内容改动甚大，但章次和范围基本未变。收名中加上“西方”一词，说明我们意识到西欧和南北美洲的音乐体系不过是世界文明的诸音乐体系之一。本书范围的又一局限在于只谈“艺术音乐”；而必须承认，“艺术音乐”这一概念本身便十分含糊。通俗音乐、爵士乐以及诸如此类的品种确已有相当高深的技巧，但不能期望本书同等对待西方音乐的这一广大支系（如今已成为独立的研究课题），常规的音乐史教程也未必能等同视之，而本书不过是一本常规音乐史的手册。
赵朴初先生德高望重，其诗、词、曲等各体韵文的创作均有很高的造诣，在当代作家中罕有可比；同时，他的书法秀逸峻拔，享誉海内外。朴初先生一生创作颇丰，然多随写随以人，其墨宝散在海内外各地，搜集甚为不易。本书选其手书自作的诗、词、曲墨宝132幅，计含作品165首，既是他的韵文作品选，也是其书法作品选，具有双重的鉴赏与珍藏价值。

Understanding exactly how a digital SLR (dSLR) works can help you use its exciting capabilities to their fullest potential. Whether you aim to become a serious photo hobbyist, are interested in turning pro, or want to take advantage of the improved control that dSLRs give you over your photography, this fun and friendly reference will show you how to maximize everything a dSLR has to offer so that you can improve your photography skills, increase your picture-taking and image-editing knowledge, and ultimately, take better photos. Written with just the right balance of technology and techniques in mind, this guide provides you with the know-how on everything from getting acquainted with the basic key features of the technology (lenses, sensors and image processors, and exposure and focusing systems) to the nuances of various dSLR techniques (setting up speedy continuous-shooting burst modes to capture fast action, applying selective and sharp focus, and shooting under the lowest levels of light).

Elegance represents an important watershed in architectural design. Since the onset of computer-driven technologies, innovative designers have, almost exclusively, been preoccupied with the pursuit of digital techniques. This issue of AD extrapolates current design tendencies and brings them together to present a new type of architecture, one that is seamlessly trying processes, space, structure and material together with beauty. ‘Elegance’ here is cast with a new contemporary meaning as it is applied to work that is effortlessly complex. It is analogous to an elegant algorithm that uses a small amount of initiative code to great effect. In a structure elegance may be expressed by a complex surface that retains its continuity and integrity even when punctured. In many ways, Elegance marks a coming of age for, ‘digital architecture’, as architects become more adept at producing complexity and integrating digital design technologies, production and assembly systems producing elegant solutions.

Presented in an identical format to Phaidon's previous Fruits, published in 2001, Fresh Fruits is a collection of Tokyo teenage street fashion portraits selected from Japan's premier street fanzine of the same title. Published every month by Shoichi Aoki, who is also the sole photographer for the magazine, Fruits was established in 1994 as a project to document the growing explosion in street fashion within the suburbs of Tokyo. Over the last decade the magazine has grown to cult status and is now avidly followed by thousands of Japanese teenagers who also use the magazine as an opportunity to check out the latest styles and trends. The average age of those kids featured in the magazine is between 12 and 18 years old. Most of the clothes that they wear are a combination of high fashion - Vivienne Westwood is a keen favourite - and homemade ensembles which when combined together create a novel if not hysterical combination. This latest publication of the best of Fruits will follow the original Phaidon publicat
