I just received her books based on the content of this thread and some others mentioning her.

I have no doubt that she has made a big impact on music and knows her stuff. However, I'm having a very difficult time understanding her writing (if you can call it that).

I'm frustrated about all this because on the one hand I'm excited because I believe this is a good way to think about improv. On the other hand, I can't understand her explanations and I feel that they are inadequate even if they were better written. So, I'll turn to TB for help.

Can anyone here elaborate on the stacked triads? I understand the basic chaining of them, but do they always alternate Major, Minor, Major, Minor? Do the G7 and Dm examples all use diatonic notes of the Cmaj scale?
