Über den Autor

The author is a space scientist of international reputation with a close and active relation with music (he studied organ with the late maestros Héctor Zeoli in Buenos Aires and Hans Jendis in Göttingen), who organized and directed the international workshops on the Neuropsychological Foundations of Music at the Carinthian Music Festivals in Ossiach, Austria. These workshops, held regularly between 1973 and 1985, have been credited as being the originators of the interdisciplinary approach to the study of music perception. In 2007 he was invited to deliver the opening lecture on Music and the Evolution of Human Brain Function at the international congress Mozart and Science in Baden/Vienna, Austria.

Zusammenfassung

Much of the book is accessible with no prior knowledge of physics, mathematics, physiology or psychology; more advanced mathematics is given in appendixes

This new edition of a best-selling introduction contains substantially revised coverage of psychoacoustics, including new research in functional MRI, consciousness, and emotion

The only existing single-authored, truly interdisciplinary, up-to-date text on musical tone generation and perception

Earlier editions translated into German, Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese

Offers the opportunity to non-scientists to learn about and appreciate the beauty of science, and offers the opportunity to scientists to learn and appreciate the intimate relationship between science and art
