330 .. $a In this ground-breaking synthesis of art and science, Diana Deutsch, one of the world's
leading experts on the psychology of music, shows how illusions of music and speech--many
of which she herself discovered--have fundamentally altered thinking about the brain.
These astonishing illusions show that people can differ strikingly in how they hear
musical patterns--differences that reflect variations in brain organization as well
as influences of language on music perception. Drawing on a wide variety of fields,
including psychology, music theory, linguistics, and neuroscience, Deutsch examines
questions such as: When an orchestra performs a symphony, what is the "real" music?
Is it in the mind of the composer, or the conductor, or different members of the audience?
Deutsch also explores extremes of musical ability, and other surprising responses
to music and speech. Why is perfect pitch so rare? Why do some people hallucinate
music or speech? Why do we hear phantom words and phrases? Why are we subject to stuck
tunes, or "earworms"? Why do we hear a spoken phrase as sung just because it is presented
repeatedly? In evaluating these questions, she also shows how music and speech are
intertwined, and argues that they stem from an early form of communication that had
elements of both. Many of the illusions described in the book are so striking and
paradoxical that you need to hear them to believe them. The book enables you to listen
to the sounds that are described while reading about them.--Book jacket
