Why does music evoke such powerful moods? The answers are at last be- coming clear, thanks to revolutionary neuroscience and the emerging field of evolutionary psychology. Both a cutting-edge study and a tribute to the beauty of music itself, This Is Your Brain on Music unravels a host of mysteries that affect everything from pop culture to our understanding of human nature, including:\n• Are our musical preferences shaped in utero?\n• Is there a cutoff point for acquiring new tastes in music?\n• What do PET scans and MRIs reveal about the brain’s response to music?\n• Is musical pleasure different from other kinds of pleasure?\n\nThis Is Your Brain on Music explores cultures in which singing is considered an essential human function, patients who have a rare disorder that prevents them from making sense of music, and scientists studying why two people may not have the same definition of pitch. At every turn, this provocative work unlocks deep secrets about how nature and nurture forge a uniquely human obsession.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780525949695\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brand: Dutton Adult","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51752790720813,"sku":"FBA_1T46845","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5853\/5981\/files\/91lHdFUsNYL.jpg?v=1768464137","url":"https:\/\/silkroadstore.us\/products\/this-is-your-brain-on-music-the-science-of-a-human-obsession","provider":"Silk Road Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
