By placing electrodes in the brain, we can know what pitches someone is hearing. Cool! Now, of course, I have to ask: what kind of cables are best to connect these electrodes to a pre-amp? Really, though, there is so much profound information in the book that I feel my whole understanding of music is about to change.
+1. This is a great book, my wife gave it to me for Christmas last year and I found it fascinating.
