This Is Your Brain on Music

Brief Summary

Music is an integral part of our lives, and no other species can experience and enjoy it as much as we do. In his book This Is Your Brain on Music, Daniel J. Levitin uses examples from Mozart to Van Halen to explore the science behind music and why we like it. You’ll find out how musicians use neurobiology to create their music, why the music we listened to during formative years remains so significant throughout our whole lives, and why we happen to have earworms inside our minds.
