daniel levitin is one of the lead researchers in music psychology - i had the pleasure of taking one of his courses while studying at mcgill and learned a lot of about how music and sound can affect our brain

"Music insinuates itself into our earliest memories; it is intimately connected to our emotional regulation and cognition; its shared rhythms and sounds are essential to our social behaviors."

cross-cast to see if any psychology folks want to join in on the book club!

daniel levitin's new book focuses on how music integrates itself so deeply into our memories and emotional states and how that can affect our social behaviours

(he's also the author of "this is your brain on music" & "the organized mind")

I couldn't get through his other works but maybe a book club would help...
