Review # 1 was written on 2012-02-22 00:00:00 Christopher Taulane I sometimes watch suspense movies for the hidden love story, or comedies for the political satire. Likewise, it's not so much the insight into music but the hidden stories, the side stories that make this book transforming. I am quite taken by any writer who attempts to access a theory via intuition. It is a nearly impossible task. It is, as Andre Breton wrote, "reaching for the impossible while standing on the possible ground." Khan does this, and the journey is quite wonderful. It's like being blindfolded on a speeding train with a delightful companion. It's hard to know the destination, but I hoped the journey would never end. Re-reading my favorite passages in this book cures tummy aches.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-01-18 00:00:00 Andrew Rolston I loved this book. It has very little to do with music as we think of it. This is a book about spirituality. It draws from all religions and shows how they are similar. I would recommend this book to anyone. It was (for me)and a slow read, as I would stop reading to ponder and think about the concepts.
