Music and the Human Brain - Book Review

Have you ever noticed that folks that have a musical background happen to be smarter than other people? Scientists, neurologists, and clinical psychologists have noted this and there is very strong evidence that this is not a fluke, but that there is a very real reason as to why this is, that goes deep into the biological human system, even down to the cell level.
Indeed, rather than me explain all this to you, perhaps I might recommend an extremely telling book on this very topic. The book is by a University Researcher that has dedicated much of his own life to studying all this. The name of the book is:
"This is Your Brain on Music; The Science of Human Obsession" by Daniel J. Levitin; Penguin Book Group; New York, NY; 2006. ISBN: 978-0-452-28852-2
You will learn about the biorhythms of the human body, as well as the brain frequencies and resonance that is part of our very essence, and you will discover the secrets to the biological vibrational energy within the human body. The human psyche is very much attached to the resonance of music, and it is not by accident. This is why zoologists have also found that "music calms the nature of wild animals."
Ever wonder why people tap their pencils or tap their feet, or why we listen to music, sing tunes in our heads or why we get some silly jingle stuck in our brain? The answers to all these questions and more are in this work. Learn why music is so enjoyable to us, and why we love our music so much. Please consider buying this book, reading it, and considering all the ramifications of its findings
