About this book

Oliver Sacks explores the relationship between music and the brain, beginning with the widespread human capacity to recognize rhythm, melody and tone. He considers why music can provoke strong emotion despite conveying no ordinary verbal message. The discussion brings biological questions about music's origins together with the differences in how individuals perceive and respond to it.
