The artificial noise in our lives is a debris field of arbitrary
and often harmful signals. Our lives are riddled with sound:
heavy-footed neighbours, an ambulance screeching nearby, white
noise from the television. Unsurprisingly, the noisy environment in
which we live has an immense impact on our concentration,
alertness, and feelings of anxiety. To help us manage the rubble
that hinders our mind and well-being, Bernie Krause whisks us
through the practical steps that each one of us can take to reduce
the unhealthy noise in your life and realize the healing powers of
certain acoustic encounters. Along the way, we explore the
difference between harmful noise and the signals that make us feel
good, between noise as a stressor and soundscapes that serve to
boost our emotional and physiological health and stimulate our
productivity. By following his suggestions you'll discover what a
wide variety of sound signatures represent; which ones you like,
which ones you don't, and why. Thoroughly researched and accessibly
crafted, THE POWER OF TRANQUILITY IN A VERY NOISY WORLD will show
you how to gain control over your sonic experiences and live a more
tranquil and enduring life.
