I've been having some minor issues with PayPal. I wrote a note to this seller explaining the situation and requesting alternative payment methods (check, credit card, etc). I got no response. I wrote again, no response. No money exchanged, no merchandise delivered, no complaints... no deal. As far as I'm concerned, I'd rather not do business with people who choose to not communicate. This seller has lost a customer. No hard feeling, no resentment, but I'll buy my books elsewhere.

My daughter, a jazz singer, has music in her soul. I, on the other hand, love to sing and and listen to oldies and acapella but do not "get it" like she does. I have a hard time appreciating the different nuances and instruments although I did take piano lessons for many years.

I purchased it on her recommendation. I loved learning how the brain relates to music and also how we are all so different. All of the case histories were fascinating.

Quickly shipped to me in great condition, highly recommend this seller. The book itself was really interesting, I had heard about it on NPR and wrote the name down. Im a psychology major and this was a great recreational read to break up school work.

Great book! Read excerpts from it in a magazine. Very interesting actual accounts of unusual cases of people with musical "anomalies", if you will. Rivetting!
