\n In this groundbreaking union of art and science, rocker-turned-neuroscientist Daniel J. Levitin\u00a0explores the connection between music\u2014its performance, its composition, how we listen to it, why we enjoy it\u2014and the human brain. <\/p>\n

Taking on prominent thinkers who argue that music is nothing more than an evolutionary accident, Levitin poses that music is fundamental to our species, perhaps even more so than language.\u00a0Drawing on the latest research and on musical examples ranging from Mozart to Duke Ellington to Van Halen, he reveals:<\/p>\n

\u2022 How composers produce some of the most pleasurable effects of listening to music by exploiting the way our brains make sense of the world
\u2022 Why we are so emotionally attached to the music we listened to as teenagers, whether it was Fleetwood Mac, U2, or Dr. Dre
\u2022 That practice, rather than talent, is the driving force behind musical expertise
\u2022 How those insidious little jingles (called earworms) get stuck in our head<\/p>\n

A Los Angeles Times Book Award finalist, This Is Your Brain on Music will attract readers of Oliver Sacks and David Byrne, as it is an unprecedented, eye-opening investigation into an obsession at the heart of human nature. <\/p>\n
