Healing Sounds from the Malaysian Rainforest
Temiar Music and Medicine
--
Marina Roseman
Blending her skills as an ethnomusicologist and anthropologist, the author explores the interaction between Temiar music and healing. Although primarily an academic work, Roseman's evocative style is sufficiently rich and evocative to enable the reader to better understand the cultural logic of an effective therapeutic system that sustains the reclusive forest dwellers in Perak and Kelantan. 233 pages with some black and white plates, a discography, a bibliography, glossary and index. Near Fine Hardback in an As New Dust Jacket. First Edition
