Written by John Westcombe in association with NAME, this 106-page handbook, published by Heinemann, is "essentially for students, but of great value to parents and teachers... is comprehensive and both eminently readable and a helpful reference." Students are guided through the decision-making territory, and there is a clear format of Jobs, Skills, Training and Opportunities which covers 23 areas, as well as examples of interesting posts in and around music not requiring a music degree. Case Studies of established musicians, as well as those still making their way, tie in with a number of specialist contributors’ views. So, Research to Roadies, and Applications to World Musics!
