“The book is systematic but concise, covering the acoustic basics required for engineering applications, as well as electroacoustic transducers, room acoustics, noise control, and more aspects of the fundamentals. … it is also beneficial to engineers and technicians engaged in the development of related technologies, so it is hereby recommended.” (ACTA ACUSTICA, Vol. 48 (4), 2023)“As its title suggests, the book takes a structured, engineering approach. … It also serves as a reference book to delve deeper into individual topics or to revisit buried knowledge. … Acoustics for Engineers is convincing in its brevity and structure and is consequently recommended to all readers who, in addition to a well-illustrated presentation of the fundamentals of acoustics and electro-acoustics, are interested in their derivations, correlations, and analogies, as well as in the calculation of typical problems.” (Martin Schneider, vdt Magazin, Issue (2), 2022)
