Brain and Music (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A comprehensive survey of the latest neuroscientific research into the effects of music on the brain * Covers a variety of topics fundamental for music perception, including musical syntax, musical semantics, music and action, music and emotion * Includes general introductory chapters to engage a broad readership, as well as a wealth of detailed research material for experts * Offers the most empirical (and most systematic) work on the topics of neural correlates of musical syntax and musical semantics * Integrates research from different domains (such as music, language, action and emotion both theoretically and empirically, to create a comprehensive theory of music psychology
