Enjoyed reading this book. I am interested in music as a healing medium. I relate to her perspectives and she does go into detail that is helpful to understand the bodies energy systems. This lays a good foundation for understanding how music heals.

Hands down, my favourite overview on music and healing.

I read this as part of my research for my music therapy project. Very interesting. I think she has a couple far out ideas (she's a feminist for the 70's) but it was a very mind broadening book.
