About The Book

The psycho-acoustic role played by sound and music is well-known to mankind, right from the days of our ancestors who hunted animals and lived in caves for their existence. The archaeological findings of flutes and drums, made of bones and skins of those animals hunted stand as a mute witness in museums around the world. The pre Vedic and Vedic Indians had carved out a practical system, which used concepts and practices relating to acoustics and psychoacoustics.

About the Author

A former administrator, economist, ethno-botanist and musicologist, T. V. Sairam is known for his best-selling Home Remedies, a compilation of four volumes on herbal medicine, published by the Penguin. "The Penguin Dictionary of Alternative Medicine' is the first-ever authentic listing of concepts and practices of alternative healing, also authored by him. A writer of international repute, Sairam's treatises on music therapy are path-breaking, as he deals with traditional wisdom in as much as modern sciences.

Preface

There has been a long-felt need for a compact dictionary on music therapy especially by the students and scholars of the discipline, drawn from various academic formations, which include music, musicology, medical / paramedical sciences, psychology, psychiatry, rehabilitation and yoga.

Music therapy, as we all know, is a multi-disciplinary field emerging rapidly in recent times, as the people who suffer from various psychosomatic ailments have found no solace in the present-day drugs, which are not only expensive but also capable of triggering iatrogenic conditions and complications.
