>What book are you talking about when referring to "Mathieu's Book?"

W. A. Mathieu, _Harmonic Experience: Tonal Harmony from its Natural
Origins to its Modern Expression_, Inner Traditions International, 1997, ISBN
0-89281--560-4.

When I got my hardcover textbook-like copy it was $45 US list price, but
I got mine reaaaally cheap when I was working in the book trade before I "got
disabled."
I have no quote on what it is listed for nowadays, but I imagine it's
like $60.

Highly recommended. ER, Make that _REQUIRED_... :)
