AUG/SEP 07 - AudioFile

Based on his study of music as a force to increase concentration, relieve stress, improve health, and harness additional brain power, Don Campbell walks us through a series of listening exercises, helps us create an optimal work environment though selecting appropriate music, then turns us loose to practice those skills to build creativity and increase relaxation. Campbell does a great job demonstrating the effects that music has on thinking, and an audio production seems the most effective way to share his expertise. Surprisingly, his reading is a bit awkward at times, in stark contrast to his lessons on the importance of inflection. Overall, though, he provides valuable insights for anyone looking to increase mental acuity. H.L.S. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
