Abstract
Neuroscienze cognitive della musica by Alice Mado Proverbio offers an updated selection of studies on the delicate interweaving between musical practice and brain plasticity. The book provides evidence on how the learning and enjoyment of music can be verified by means of neuroimaging techniques, showing how it determines significant variations in sensory and motor cortical areas as well as in limbic centers, the guardians of emotions. The many topics addressed, from perfect pitch to rehabilitation in Parkinson's and mirror neurons, turn out to be useful in an educational perspective, building a valid framework of reference for any further independent investigation. As a reader and commentator on this text, I hope that readers who, like me, are fascinated with the musical synaptic forest, will be able to follow the story of science without getting lost in dead ends, and fully discover just to what degree we are made of music.
