Download or read book Why You Love Music written by John Powell and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A delightful journey through the psychology and science of music, Why You Love Music is the perfect book for anyone who loves a tune. Music plays a hugely important role in our emotional, intellectual, and even physical lives. It impacts the ways we work, relax, behave, and feel. It can make us smile or cry, it helps us bond with the people around us, and it even has the power to alleviate a range of medical conditions. The songs you love (and hate, and even the ones you feel pretty neutral about) don't just make up the soundtrack to your life -- they actually help to shape it. In Why You Love Music, scientist and musician John Powell dives deep into decades of psychological and sociological studies in order to answer the question "Why does music affect us so profoundly?" With his relaxed, conversational style, Powell explores all aspects of music psychology, from how music helps babies bond with their mothers to the ways in which music can change the taste of wine or persuade you to spend more in restaurants. Why You Love Music will open your eyes (and ears) to the astounding variety of ways that music impacts the human experience.

Download or read book The Mozart Effect written by Don G. Campbell and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don Campbell is a pioneer in the field of therapeutic sound and the uses of music on learning and health. This is the author's story of how he cured himself of brain cancer with the music of Mozart. What is this magical medium that moves, enchants, infuriates, and heals us? Music almost defies description. It is a flexible power that brings different memories and images and invokes different feelings and emotions. Music brings us to a place of fear or anticipation within minutes of watching a movie; it takes our mind off traffic noise in seconds; it sets a quiet, spacious mood in an evening of romance. Music can dance and sing our blues away. It brings back the memory of a lost lover or a deceased friend. It allows the child in us to play, the monk in us to pray, the cowgirl in us to line-dance, the hero in us to surmount all difficulties. We have seen it help the stroke patient to find language and expression. We have witnessed the person with a fear of public speaking dissolve anxiety and tension.
