From the book reviews: "This book promises a comprehensive approach to the subject, covering all pertinent aspects. ... this book will be of particular benefit to those involved in the design and procurement of sonar systems. The exploration of the impact of practical engineering issues on sonar performance also renders it a valuable supplement to the books used by those conducting research in sonar performance modelling and underwater acoustics."
