Review

"This book isn't aimed at those looking for straightforward guidance on designing sound systems to suit a particular application, but it does ably equip the reader with an armory of knowledge to be able to do so."
Lighting and Sound

'a comprehensive book designed to provide a broad-ranging introduction to the subject of acoustics.' Audio, Video and Broadcasting magazine

'a good solid reference' Guy Scarlett, Lecturer, UK

"The sound and the way we hear it; its characteristics and the complex processes that are carried out between the hearing and the brain to interpret it; its processing; the musical notes; the tuning systems; the audition environments or spaces, and more. "Acoustics and Psychoacoustics" talks about all these topics in a precise, clear way with a wide variety of examples so that the reader can solve any doubt." - Tecnoprofile Magazine
