In this succinct review of academic literature, Abel James explores the relationship between music, language, evolution, and the human brain. Despite its rampant abundance in human experience, history, and culture – music has no clear adaptive function. This begs the question: What is the origin of music, and why does it play such an enormous role in our lives?

If you’ve ever spent much time with musicians, it’s clear that they are a “unique” bunch. The countless hours spent listening to and creating music has shaped their minds and, indeed, their brains. This begs a second question: How does musical experience influence the human brain? Are they uniquely predisposed to be musicians, or does musical training literally rewire their brains?

The Kindle version of The Musical Brain is a brief review of scientific research.

Conformity and conventional thinking are all too common and impede innovation. They prevent the creation of new products, services and ventures that could make the world a better place.

Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way. Well-known unconventional firms are setting the example of how unconventional thinking can unleash creativity and flexibility in their workers (Apple, Google, Southwest Airlines, Cirque du Soleil, etc.), and as a result they beat the competition repeatedly.

Unconventional leadership is the solution because it leads to creativity, flexibility and risk-taking. These three components are essential to innovation and winning in today’s global and hyper-competitive environment. The book provides ideas about how to lead and build an unconventional company that beats the competition!
