Musical meter is subject to a number of fundamental perceptual and cognitive constraints. These constraints are the cornerstones of \u003cem\u003eHearing in Time's\u003c\/em\u003e account of musical meter. \u003cem\u003eHearing in Time \u003c\/em\u003ealso takes into account the fact that listening to music, like many other rhythmic activities, is something that we do a lot. It also approaches meter in the context of music as it is actually performed, with nuances of timing and dynamics, rather than as a theoretical idealization. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eHearing in Time's\u003c\/em\u003e approach to meter is not based on any particular musical style or cultural practice, and it discusses musical examples from a wide range of musical styles and cultures--from Beethoven and Bach to Brubeck and Ghanaian (Ewe) drumming. In taking this broad approach a number of fundamental similarities between a variety of different metric phenomena--such as the difference between so-called simple versus complex or additive meters - become apparent. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRequiring only a modest ability to read a musical score, \u003cem\u003eHearing in Time\u003c\/em\u003e is written for musicians, musicologists, and music theorists, as well as psychologists, linguists and cognitive scientists who are interested in rhythm and meter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJustin London\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Music at Carleton College in Northfield, MN, USA.
