Dinko Fabris draws on newly discovered archival documents to reconstruct the career of Francesco Provenzale (1624-1704) who became the leader of his musical world, despite his relatively small musical output. The book examines Provenzale's surviving works alongside those of his most important Neapolitan contemporaries. Fabris provides both a life and works study of Provenzale and a conspectus of Neapolitan musical life of the seventeenth century.

The discovery of magnetic sleep--an artificially induced trancelike state--in 1784 marked the beginning of the modern era of psychological healing. Magnetic sleep revealed a realm of mental activity that was not available to the conscious mind but could affect conscious thought and action. Psychotherapist Crabtree (Centre for Training in Psychotherapy, Toronto) tells the story of the discovery of magnetic sleep and its relationship to psychotherapy.
