From the reviews: "This book provides a great deal of useful information about many diverse areas of acoustics, and I believe that it will make a major contribution to the literature ... . All of the chapters are well-written and clearly illustrated, and a few of the chapters are truly outstanding in terms of their depth and breadth of coverage of the topic area. ... this book serves as a fitting tribute to the tremendous impact Jens Blauert has had on the worldwide study of acoustics ... ."
