(2008), these insightful essays measure the relationship between music

Thematic sections survey specific compositions utilized in science

elements in popular songs; the conveyance of subjectivity and identity
through music; and such individual composers as Richard Strauss (2001: A Space Odyssey) and Bernard Herrmann (The Day the Earth Stood Still).
