There's a book called "This is your brain on music" that's actually very 
interesting. I got half way thru it and then left it in the hotel, and I 
never bought it again. But it's all about what you might call the technology 
of music itself (not creating music, but why scales work and stuff). It kind 
of goes about answering the question "why does everyone use the same scales" 
and such.  "Why does this form of music sound sad, and what distinguishes it 
from happy music."  Etc.
