It examines the key neurocognitive mechanisms of rhythm in the development of memory and attention, including neural entrainment for time regulation and multisensory integration for sequential processing. The therapeutic benefits of music therapy for hyperactive children are highlighted, with an emphasis on non-pharmacological means of channeling excess energy, improving emotional regulation and promoting cognitive resilience.The book also looks at autism, its causes and symptoms.Music therapy sequences with autistic children illustrate the use of music therapy in concrete terms.
