The psycho-acoustic role played by sound and music is well-known to mankind right from the days of our ancestors who hunted animals and lived in caves for their existence. The archaeological findings of flutes and drums, made of bones and skins of those animals hunted stand as a mute witness in museums around the world. The pre-Vedic and Vedic Indians had carved out a practical system, which used concepts and practices relating to acoustics and psychoacoustics. The birth of the new discipline music therapy is a post war American phenomenon born in its unsung bivouacs. This idea caught fire soon as people from various disciplines music musicology, medicine psychiatry psychology, rehabilitation yoga and spiritualism started pouring in to experiment at it. As a consequence what we call music therapy is no longer a close your eyes and listen to music subject but is a full discipline incorporating tenets of arts and science, brain and heart, thoughts and feelings, expectations and experiences illness and well-being and above all the past and the present.

It makes an attempt to tackle this multi-disciplinary subject to cater to the day to day needs of a scholar or a practitioner in music therapy from all parts and cultures of the world. (jacket)

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Contents: Preface. Foreword. 1. Introduction. 2. Environmental background. 3. Early historic settlement pattern. 4. Material culture. 5. Early historic trade. 6. Discussion and conclusion. Bibliography. Index. This book is about the study of importance of hinterland trade centres of famous roman site Arikamedu. Because in the past two decades many scholars have discussed much about long distance trade and the material culture of Roman sites in India including Arikamedu extensively, but they never given emphasis to the hinterland centres of any of these Indo-Roman sites. During the height of the Roman trade, these smaller hinterland centres only provided the goods and services including agricultural products needed by the large and busy urban settlements like Arikamedu. But how Arikamedu was related to inland settlements and what type of political or economic organization may have governed the location of the port needs to be explained. Further through this research book author tried to solve many questions despite several excavations at Arikamedu regarding origin, development and extension of this town, chronology, ancient port, trade mechanism etc. The present research carried out by author helped to understand the relationship between Arikamedu and its Satellite settlements in a geographical perspectives as they functioned together contributing to the economic development of the iron age society in South India and its transformation through time. Further this topic highly useful for the identification of the strategic location of Arikamedu in the context of Megalithic exchange system and their interaction with the other early historical sites in order to understand the evolution of urbanism in ancient Tamilakam.
