The power of music: pioneering discoveries in the new science of song

The musical body and brain. Feel the sound ; Music plays the body ; The brain plays music ; Is music our genetic birthright?

The musical self. Agony and ecstasy : how we listen ; Mind-bending notes : can music make us smarter? ; Music speaks ; Why music?

The resonant world. Whale songs, elephant bands, and dancing birds ; The music of the spheres

Music Rx. Pain, pills

or music ; The next wave? ; Beyond the concert hall.
