"Percussionist and researcher Jeff Strong embarks on a three-decade journey into the power of musical rhythm. Different drummer chronicles his path as he navigates ancient drumming practices, conducts clinical research, and develops the music that establishes him as a pioneer in the world of auditory brain stimulation. Beginning with his own struggles with ADHD, Jeff abandons a successful music career and doggedly searches for ways to use musical rhythm to positively impact brain function and behavior. Jeff meticulously documents the development of his therapy and its supporting technology as he drums for people with a variety of challenges including: aggressive behavior, anxiety, attention/focus/hyperactivity, behavioral issues, cognitive issues, language/communication, mood issues, self-stimulatory behaviors, sensory processing, sleep problems, social interaction, tic behavior. Jeff's inquisitive mind and careful research reveal how fast, complex drumming can offer long-term benefits for children and adults with neurological disorders. If you have ever wondered why the drum holds a prominent role in cultures around the world or why music can influence the brain and behavior, Different drummer offers a compelling look at the life-changing and therapeutic tool of music."--Book jacket.
