| Abstract | "Research suggests that almost every region of the brain is affected when you listen to music. It has a profound impact on emotional response, cognition, sensory experience, and motor function. This volume considers the role of brain anatomy and neuroscience in relation to music, music's role in social and emotional connection, and its potential to assist in treating brain injuries and neurological disorders. Through this volume, readers will gain a stronger understanding of the complex and fascinating relationship between music and the brain"-- Provided by publisher. |
