Brainwaves and Beats: The Neuroscience and Anthropology of MusicBrainwaves and Beats is a mesmerizing voyage into the deepest grooves of the human soul, where rhythm meets neuron and melody becomes memory. This electrifying book fuses cutting-edge neuroscience with the ancient heartbeat of global musical traditions to reveal why music is humanity’s most universal, irresistible language.Across twelve mind-expanding chapters, travel from the first bone flute echoing in prehistoric caves to the neural fireworks of a modern concert hall. Discover how rhythm hijacks your brain’s timing circuits, why a minor chord can make you cry across continents, and how music literally rewires the brain for healing, bonding, and joy. Explore the primal link between beat and dance, the globalization of sound, and the profound mystery of why certain melodies feel like home.Blending rigorous science with vivid storytelling, Brainwaves and Beats celebrates music as medicine, identity, ritual, and rebellion. Whether you’re a neuroscientist, ethnomusicologist, dancer, or someone who simply feels alive when the song comes on, this book will forever change how you hear the world.Turn the page. Feel the pulse. This is where brain meets beat-and humanity sings.
