Andere die Welt, sie braucht es offers 20 songs and arrangements of songs which have long been unavailable or found at best as used copies. Among the songs that have long been out of print are classics such as the children's hymn Anmut sparet nicht noch Muhe and period pieces such as the Lied vom Anstreicher Hitler. There are also first editions, such as Eisler's setting of the Ballade von den Seeraubern and the Lidicelied which Brecht, in his turn, wrote to an existing Eisler melody. The music texts have been compared with the sources, whereby errors found in the earlier editions were corrected. Notes on the origins of the pieces and their historical context supplement the book, whose title refers to the song for the didactic play Die Massnahme, written in 1956.
