Parameters of Sound -- Math of Pitch, Scales, and Harmony -- Waves and Harmonics -- Math of Sound and Resonance -- Math in Some Rhythmic Structures-- Centerpiece : The Sense of Hearing -- Brain Mechanisms of Rhythm and thePrivate Synapse -- Neural Mechanisms of Emotion and the Social Synapse --Ear Physiology : How Air Waves Become Sound -- Deep Brain Physiology ofSound -- Sound Disorders, Illusions, and Hallucinations -- Animal Sound,Song, and Music.

"Why does a clarinet play at lower pitches than a flute? What does it mean for sounds to be in or out of tune? How are emotions carried by music?Do other animals perceive sound like we do? How might a musician use math tocome up with new ideas? This book offers a lively exploration of themathematics, physics, and neuroscience that underlie music in a way thatreaders without scientific background can follow. David Sulzer, also knownin the musical world as Dave Soldier, explains why the perception of musicencompasses the physics of sound, the functions of the ear and deep-brainauditory pathways, and the physiology of emotion. He delves into topics suchas the math by which musical scales, rhythms, tuning, and harmonies arederived, from the days of Pythagoras to technological manipulation of soundwaves. Sulzer ranges from styles from around the world to canonicalcomposers to hip-hop, the history of experimental music, and animal sound bysongbirds, cetaceans, bats, and insects. He makes accessible a vast range ofmaterial, helping readers discover the universal principles behind the musicthey find meaningful. Written for musicians and music lovers with any levelof science and math proficiency, including none, Music, Math, and Minddemystifies how music works while testifying to its beauty and wonder"--
