Trade Review
An interesting attempt to probe the long-term history of feeling as well as of thought... [This] book is intelligent, important and clear. Anyone who likes to ask broad questions about intelligence, religion and experience, as well as anyone interested in long-term human history, will be able to read and argue with [this] book with enjoyment and profit. * THES (3/3/06) *
There is much illuminating and thought-provoking material. -- Ross Leckie * THE TIMES *
Wonderfully evocative... a highly original view of our musical origins. * GUARDIAN (1/4/06) *
