Daniel J. Levitin eThe World in Six Songs How the Musical Brain Created Human Nature The author extends the argument of his This Is Your Brain on Music by showing how the brain evolved to listen to music in six fundamental forms— knowledge, friendship, ceremony, joy, comfort, and love. “Leading research- ers in music cognition are already singing its praises.”—Evolutionary Psychology. “Works much like a great piece of pop music whose combined elements can induce feelings of enlightenment and euphoria.”—The New York Times.

This Is Your Brain on Music The Science of a Human Obsession “Endlessly stimulating, a marvelous overview, and one which only a deeply musical neuroscientist could give….An important book.”—Oliver Sacks, M.D. “Levitin is a deft and patient explainer of the basics for the non-scien- tists as well as the non-musician….By tracing music’s deep ties to memory, Levitin helps quantify some of music’s magic without break its spell.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review. Plume • 320 pp. • 978-0-452-28852-2 • $15.00 A Quill Award nominee

Steve Lopez e The Soloist A Lost Dream, an Unlikely Friendship, and the Redemptive Power of Music

The true story of the Los Angeles Times journalist Steve Lopez’s discovery of Nathaniel Ayers, a Julliard trained violin prodigy who now lives on the streets of L.A. “Written with elegant spareness, there are no punches pulled in this portrait of Nathaniel Ayers...The Soloist is singularly and unforgettably true in all respects.”— Buzz Bissinger. “An intimate portrait of mental illness, of atrocious social neglect, and the struggle to resurrect a fallen prodigy.”—Mark Bowden, author of Black Hawk Down.
