"A Musician's Guide to Time" by Rosemary Mountain is a comprehensive exploration of the relationship between music and time. The book is divided into three sections, covering topics such as time as a foundational human subject, time in music generation and performance, and innovative concepts related to time. Mountain delves into various aspects of music and time, including tempo, rhythm, and musical structures. While the book primarily targets musicians, it also offers insights for general readers interested in understanding the connection between music and time. However, the book overlooks the influence of popular music and the impact of chemical states on time perception, which could be potential areas for future research. Overall, "A Musician's Guide to Time" provides thought-provoking observations and suggestions for further exploration of the complex relationship between music and time. [Extracted from the article]
