Synopsis
Excerpt from Rhythm, Vol. 6
Although experimental psychology began more than a hundred years ago through the discovery of the personal equation, it has as yet covered but a small portion of the field of mental phenomena. The nature of sensation, the time relations of mental phenomena, memory, association, space and time concepts have been carefully studied by many eminent scientists. But the whole field of the emotions has been practically a mare clausum for psychologists. Several attempts to study and determine the nature of the simplest aesthetic forms have been reported; theories of pleasure and pain, supported by some experimental observations, have been advanced, but no serious attempt has been made to submit the emotions to experimental investigation. Every psychologist recognizes the necessity of doing so and that it is the most important field of mental phenomena, and that, until psychologists can reduce the motions to some semblance of order or more ultimate principles, experimental psychology can be said to cover only a part of the field of mental life. Every one is waiting for some one else to point out the way.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that rhythm is an intrinsic quality not only in music and speech, but many physiological processes and even in the patterns of our daily lives. The author takes the reader from ancient Greek concepts through to modern physiological and scientific discoveries to support this theory. Beyond a detailed historical overview, this book explores the interplay between mental processes and external rhythms, showing the influence of both on one another. While this book is focused on the science behind rhythm, the author shows that its true power and effects come from its ability to transcend language and culture.
