Daniel Joseph Levitin, FRSC (born December 27, 1957). Reading this book is indispensable, but you might very well find it useless. Levitin effect, This Is Your Brain on Music, The World in Six Songs, The Organized Mind, A Field Guide to Lies, Successful Aging (published as The Changing Mind in the U.K.) Spouse: Heather Bortfeld: Awards: See 'Awards' section: Scientific career. He taught at Stanford University in the Department of Computer Science, the Program in Human-Computer Interaction, and the Departments of Psychology, Anthropology, Computer Music, and History of Science. Eisenhower’s famous quote could well be the bottom line of Daniel Levitin’s brilliant treaties on how we are supposed to organize our minds in the face of drowning in the 21st century sea of information. He worked for two years at the Silicon Valley think tank Interval Research Corporation. Navy, and on audio quality for several rock bands and record labels (including the Grateful Dead and Steely Dan), and served as one of the “Golden Ears” expert listeners in the original Dolby AC3 compression tests. Dan Levitin has more insights per page than any other neuroscientist I know.The Organized Mind is smart, important, and as always, exquisitely written. He has consulted on audio sound source separation for the U.S. He completed post-doctoral training at Stanford University Medical School (in Neuroimaging) and at UC Berkeley (in Cognitive Psychology). in Psychology from the University of Oregon, researching complex auditory patterns and pattern processing in expert and non-expert populations. in Cognitive Psychology and Cognitive Science at Stanford University, and went on to earn his Ph.D. A polymath at heart, he has performed with top musicians and holds a few gold and platinum records. His three books This Is Your Brain on Music, The World in Six Songs, and the recent The Organized Mind are all bestsellers. Levitin, PhD, uses the latest brain science to demonstrate how those people exceland how readers can use their methods to regain a sense of mastery over the way they organize their homes, workplaces, and time.

His research focuses on pattern processing in the brain. But somehow some people become quite accomplished at managing information flow. Daniel Levitin is a neuroscientist at McGill University in Montreal, dean at Minerva Schools in San Francisco and a musician.
