Cengage Learning, a US-based provider of innovative teaching, learning and research solutions, has announced that eight of its titles were nominated by the Bookbuilders of Boston at the 55th annual New England Book Show. Among the eight titles nominated, two received the top honour of ‘Best in Category’ in the College, Single Entry – Book and College – Cover/Jacket categories.
Milady Standard Cosmetology, the title honored as ‘Best in Category’ for College, Single Entry – Book, has reportedly been the premier textbook for cosmetology education since 1938. Each subsequent edition has evolved with the changing styles of the current era while maintaining a firm foundation in the basic procedures and applications of beauty culture that have endured for generations.
The Essential Listening to Music, honored as ‘Best in Category’ for College – Cover/Jacket, features scholar and teacher Craig Wright’s signature comparisons of classical and pop music. The writing style is said to be clear and conversational, designed to inspire a lifelong appreciation of music.
