A Sounding Mirror: Courage and Music in our Time by Thomas Stumpf (2005)
"A fearless attempt to tackle
thorny issues. Stumpf is uncompromising in his search for honesty and in his
analysis of our responses to music; his prescriptions are tough and demanding,
but offer rich rewards. He sheds enormous light on the link between music and
spirituality, and offers fascinating comparisons between the two. Enlightened by Stumpf's
palpable honesty, integrity and humility, this is a truly outstanding book
that will tell you things about yourself, your reactions to music and your
spiritual nature that you have never examined."
"Many thanks for the collection of your sermon-essays. Such
insights and experience, such varied quotes and great footnotes. I am deeply
enriched." Price: $17.95

"This intriguing and very
interesting book brings a neuropsychiatric perspective to the well-described
mood swings and oddities of personality peculiar to Thoreau's genius. Sperber incorporates
literary and mythological perspectives into his understanding of this complex
figure."
“Elegantly written and filled with surprising insights — adds a new chapter to our understanding of Thoreau.” —Alan A. Stone, Professor of Law and Psychiatry, Harvard University
