Rap songs are famous for their double entendres, clever turns of phrase, and general ingenuity, but that doesn't mean things always make sense the first time around.

With the same trademark compassion and erudition he brought to The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, Oliver Sacks explores the place music occupies in the brain and how it affects the human condition. In Musicophilia, he shows us a variety of what he calls “musical misalignments.” Among them: a man struck by lightning who suddenly desires to become a pianist at the age of forty-two; an entire group of children with Williams syndrome, who are...

Forged in the fires of the Bronx and Kingston, Jamaica,
hip-hop became the Esperanto of youth rebellion and a
generation-defining movement. In a post-civil rights era
defined by deindustrialization and globalization, hip-hop
crystallized a multiracial, polycultural generation's
