Perspectives and Limitations

The reviews for 'the Body Electric' look interesting, to me the issues raised there are still clearly an open question, ie. possible interactions between the body and electricity and electromagnetism. However, I leave it at that without clearer knowledge, and don't turn it into a philosophy. I am certainly not going along with any conspiracy theories here. I just wanted to point out some basic science, as opposed to its paranoid usage ..

Regarding music, yes Mozart Is Good For You - providing you are receptive, have accurate recordings, and have the correct home acoustic setup. Even then, no-one can say exactly how, except that it seems to promote and assist mental activity in some way.

I prefer to stick with the poetic and psychological approach in these matters, viz. Beethoven's quote that "those who truly understand my music will be freed of the chains which others drag around after themselves".
