All are part of the long human search for harmony and rhythm - principles that have shaped music, mathematics, architecture, medicine, theology, and cosmology across millennia. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHarmony and Rhythm of the Universe: Interdisciplinary Explorations from 1500 to the Present brings together physicists, astronomers, neuroscientists, mathematicians, musicians, historians, and theologians in a richly interdisciplinary dialogue. From Pythagoras and Plato to Kepler and Einstein, from Renaissance Europe to modern neuroscience, this volume traces how two deceptively simple concepts have proven endlessly generative - capable of connecting the movements of celestial bodies to the rhythms of the human heartbeat, and the proportions of a cathedral façade to the intervals of a musical scale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather than offering a linear history, the book demonstrates that harmony and rhythm are living, contested, and evolving ideas. Past and present speak to one another here: ancient intuitions illuminate new discoveries, and contemporary science casts fresh light on centuries-old thought.\u003cbr\u003eFor anyone curious about the deep connections between art, science, and the human experience of the universe, this volume is an invitation to listen more carefully - to the world, and to ourselves.","brand":"Christoph Strosetzki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839112720635,"sku":"9781648251962","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/harmony-and-rhythm-of-the-universe-9781648251962","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
