Untangling the curious links between notes and number, musical perception, psychology and physics, David Darling examines the fascinating science behind music, from its Palaeolithic origins to the present.

Untangling the curious links between notes and number, musical perception, psychology and physics, David Darling examines the fascinating science behind music, from its Palaeolithic origins to the present.
Revealing surprising connections and busting pervasive myths, A Perfect Harmony asks:

- Why do we find some pieces sad and others happy?
- Will playing Mozart to babies predispose them to genius?
- Could an AI write the perfect symphony?
