Ever wondered why people argue whether music is a "universal language"? Here is my take published today.
Societies, animals and even machines have music in common

👆Wonderful book by @PatrickESavage now freely accessible and downloadable at
academic.oup.com/book/62353
My book is now published! 🌏🎶🧪
You can download it for free at academic.oup.com/book/62353 - I’d be grateful if you do!
I also published an accessible summary with audio/video today in @Nature: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
Try that first, then give the whole book a read if you like it!
Thanks in advance for helping share this widely! The book took >8 years to write, and represents the synthesis of my entire academic career to date. I even paid 🤑🤑🤑 so you can download it for free! (So don’t bother paying for the physical book unless that's important to you!)
And the @Nature essay is probably the only thing I’ve published yet that I think even non-academics will enjoy. Here is a gift link to the full PDF if needed (though it lacks some of the cool audio/visuals of the link above) 🔓: rdcu.be/e5gLE
This will probably be my last post here. Find me over there!

Should have mentioned this great quote from The Wire also applies to data/code availability statements!

And yet, at the end of the day, you can still live the "life of kings" if you have the integrity to do what's right even if it's not the way to win the game

Last Friday, Dr Ellie Rukuwai and Dr Nuzha Saleem from our Centre presented a CACR lecture, titled "Kaupapa Māori Methodology and qualitative methods: An Endeavour to Humanise Psychology".
Replying to @alexandreafonso
@alexandreafonso wrote about "How Academia Resembles a Drug Gang" (papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…). Here are some timeless quotes from my favourite TV show The Wire that I often think about in my daily life as an academic. From peer review to data analysis, it's all in the game. (1/13)
