Blake Howe has written a thorough, thoughtful, and very practically minded review of currently available textbooks for undergraduate film and media music classes. Hearing the Movies, second edition, is included and receives some very complimentary remarks, which, needless to say, we are happy to hear: in particular, comments about the chronological organization in the new edition, the close readings in chapters 10, 12, and 14, and the expansion and better integration of the writing exercises from the first edition.
The citation is Journal of Music History Pedagogy 6 (2016). Here's a link: Howe review.
