Book 2
The Physics and Psychophysics of Music. Juan G. Roederer. 3rd edition. Soft Cover
Angus and Robertsons does this book for $104.95
Product Description
This book, a classic in its field, deals with the physical systems and physiological processes that intervene in music. It analyzes what objective, physical properties of sound are associated with what subjective psychological sensations of music, and it describes how these sound patterns are actually generated in musical instruments, how they propagate through the environment, and how they are detected by the ear and interpreted in the brain. Using the precise language of science, but without complicated mathematics, the author weaves a close mesh of the physics, psychophysics and physiology relevant to music. A prior knowledge of physics, mathematics, physiology or psychology is not required to understand most of the book; it is, however, assumed that the reader is familiar with music - in particular, with musical notation, musical scales and intervals, and some of the basics of musical instruments.
I would give this book 8.5 out of 10 for its condition.
$50 and its yours which will include free postage to anywhere in Australia.
Or $90 for both books including free deliver anywhere in Australia.
