Science of music?

Julie said Jun 2, 4:02 PM:

The best book I've seen so far on the science of music is “Your Brain on Music” - it explains what's happening as we listen and perform - very cool!

Hey Julie! Welcome to the group and to Gaia.

I've never heard of this book. Is it all explained from a scientific point of view?
What else can you tell us about it?

It's about the effect music has on people, and on the brain, but you don't  have to be a brain surgeon to understand it. It's ISBN-13: 9780452288522, by Daniel Levitin.
It's hard to describe… but it's a new way to examine music.
Of course, the other music geeks are reading it too!
