                 "Essays & Readings: On the Origin of Music"
                http://www.webster.sk.ca/greenwich/readings.htm

        This newly published 92 page book is a compendium of writings on the
origin of music spanning a period of research & publication from the
1950's to 2003.
        The 3 sections of the book combine a number of printed works, mainly
these essays: "The Origin of Music"; The "Neanderthal Flute," [Oldest
known musical instrument] and "Stages in the Evolution of Melody, Scales
& Harmony."
        Each section has additional articles and  several updates designed to
weave the material into one integrated whole.
        The earlier writings & theory, analyses & predictions are increasingly
confirmed by virtually all the new studies and findings over the past
years.
        Section II also has extensive discussion and debate correspondence,
including from well-known anthropologists, archaeologists,
ethnomusicologists and others.

        Information details on availability, price, the full table of contents,
