The Musical Human: A History of Life on Earth

Awful awful book. If Spitzer just stuck to talking about music it would be fine, even considering his clearly biased and terrible representation of western music. However, he decided to venture into biology and evolution and language, and many other fields- for which it is extremely clear all Spitzer did was search up random studies that included music, gave it a cursory look- then quoted them to further his incoherent argument. Absolute waste of time.
