Book Reviews of Music: The New Age Elixir

Book Review: A biased, unresearched view of music
Summary: 1 Stars

Lisa Sumner falls into the same pattern she criticizes in her book. She has not read much beyond 1992 in the field of mind/body medicine. She rightfully points out some of the sloppy thinking of new agers. But her logic is as faulty as theirs and just incorrect. Her lack ofrespect for those devoted to the field actually backfires against her goal. The book neither teaches nor inspires. It is unprofessional and does not reflect well on Music Therapy.
