Publisher's Summary

Music not only excites and electrifies, but it produces and orchestrates neural functionality. Just listening synchronizes brainwaves, the nervous system, pain tolerance, mood, and your immune system. Musicians have sophisticated neural networks like tracks of the railroads. It grows more mass in the brain (especially the hippocampus), boosts cognition, linguistics, spatial rotation, social interaction, and empathy.

It’s not too late, either. MRIs show brain activity changes in non-musicians as soon as they began. Another showed personality changes to empathy when the MRI compared activity changes after six weeks when compared to the first session. Accelerate learning with strategies you can use now.
