"This is Your Brain on Music: Understanding a Human Obsession" by Daniel J. Levitin
"In this groundbreaking union of art and science, rocker-turned-neuroscientist Daniel J.

"Smile of the Universe: Miracles in an Age of Disbelief" by Michael Grosso
"Why Is the Universe Smiling? The word miracle is rooted in a Sanskrit syllable smi, from which we get the English word smile.

An account of reported miraculous phenomena, Smile of the Universe takes us beyond conventional religion and science to explore the outer reaches of human potential. Grounded in true stories and matters of fact, Michael Grosso argues for the reality of a great Mind and for the human ability to communicate with that Mind. In an age of disbelief, it presents a fact-based template for experimental spirituality and...>>
