 Important work, presentation lacking September 13, 2008
This book has important information about octaves and harmonics. However it is filled with mathematical and spelling errors in its translation from German to English. One can surmise that even in the original German the style is very terse. The author does not lay enough ground work for each subject but delves right in leaving little room for orientation. Those not familiar with each particular subject will be left trying to get into each area as the dense writing style unfolds thereby missing important details along the way. Also lacking are specific proofs within the text for the frequency assignments that are given for specific phenomena.
So while the subject matter is part of the great work conveyed by mystery schools such as the Sufis and Pythagoras the specific presentation here is lacking in it's accessibility and tarnished by lack of refinement.
For the reader new to this subject the works of Hazrat Inayat Khan, Russill Paul, Joscelyn Godwin, or Pythagoras are recommened as better starting places.

This guy is really smart. He has alot of equations that are above my head, but they are in the book to qualify what he is saying. I enjoyed alot of the things he said, they helped me clarify some things I've been looking into. I did not get this book for his theory of theology or spiritual guidance. I got it for the science and knowledge of music and how it is in all creation. As far as I'm concerned he could have left some of his opinions out. But I'm glad I bought the book.
 Filled with errors, don't waste your money. August 27, 2006

This book is filled with mathematical errors and typos. Makes a book on harmonics rather useless. Don't buy it.
Is the Universe in 'tune'? July 8, 2006
8 out of 23 found this review helpful
People have been trying for years to prove that the founding cause of the Universe is natural occuring harmonies. These theories are usually the occult disguising itself as science. If these theories are correct there needs to be a 'fundamental' frequency (a demiurge style 'god of harmony') to begin the resonance. No such thing exists - see Scientific American, August 2005 'Is the Universe Out of a Tune?'
