The Musical Human: A History of Life on Earth

A wide-ranging global history of music
A fascinating non-fiction book by world-leading musicologist Michael Spitzer . He splits his 165m years global history of music into three. He moves from nature (insects to birds), across a solitary human life, world history and our cultural evolution. All the while exploring the complex relationship between the humans and music. He also explores the future impact of AI too. Every so often the book came over like a relatively dense textbook for me. But it was a decent read, nonetheless.
