- 3rd Edition.
From the physical vibrations of sound to the perplexing questions of how music conveys meaning, Psychology of Music: From Sound to Significance takes readers on a wide-ranging exploration of this vibrant multidisciplinary field of study. Now in its third edition, the book emphasizes meaningful links between academic learning and real-world contexts, pointing readers towards intriguing strands of research in both basic and applied areas that are highlighted throughout.
In this new edition, the authors apply the same richness of depth and scope that were the hallmarks of the previous editions of this text, exploring the foundations of music psychology; the perception and cognition of music; development, learning, and performance; and the meaning and significance of music.
Key features include:
- More than 450 new citations to reflect advances in the field
- New boxes exploring topics such as the musical experience of cochlear implant users, pitch and rhythm perception in animals, gene-environment interplay, and the benefits of music in medical and therapeutic contexts
- An expanded appendix including many new tried-and-tested projects and exercises for instructors
This book continues to be invaluable to both psychology and music undergraduate and postgraduate students and instructors, and will appeal to anyone interested in the vital and expanding field of psychology of music.
