SUMMARY:"Music Between Your Ears" with Author Dr. Samuel Markind
DESCRIPTION:Join author Dr. Samuel Markind as he delves into why music 
 touches us so deeply — and talks about the scientific mechanisms behind 
 this phenomenon. In his recently published book\, Music Between Your Ears\, 
 Dr. Markind explores the intriguing relationship between music and brain 
 function. Grounded in evolutionary history\, learn about the pivotal role 
 music plays in human survival and procreation. From communication and 
 caregiving to social bonding and partner selection\, music has molded the 
 human species and continues to shape our lives in remarkable 
 ways.\n\nThrough vivid examples\, Dr. Markind will highlight the brain’s 
 instinctive capacity for music: from newborns’ natural affinity for 
 rhythm and melody to the effect that music has on brain development 
 throughout life. Music also helps people learn at any age and in any 
 condition\, so it can improve speech\, movement\, and memory in both 
 healthy individuals and those suffering from illness or injury.\n\nDr. 
 Markind encourages readers to engage actively with music. Whether through 
 singing\, dancing\, or instrument playing\, the benefits of active 
 participation are profound and accessible to everyone\, regardless of 
 musical background. This book\, filled with straightforward and practical 
 suggestions\, is an inspiring guide for anyone seeking to enrich their life 
 through music.\n\nMusic Between Your Ears shows how the act of engaging 
 with music can profoundly impact your mental\, physical\, and emotional 
 well-being. And the benefits of music go far beyond 
 entertainment—they’re essential to the very fabric of what makes us 
 human.\n\nDr. Sam Markind has long been interested in the brain.  So\, it 
 was a natural choice for him to specialize in neurology after he finished 
 medical school.  During his more than 30 years in practice\, he had a 
 particular interest in evaluating and treating patients with dementia.  
 This included participating in clinical trials of medications being 
 developed for memory disorders.  Though now retired\, he continues to serve 
 on the Medical Scientific Advisory Committee of the Connecticut Chapter of 
 the Alzheimer’s Association.
