5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, but not too wordy, 15 Feb 2004
I bought this book to aid my research into film sound for a university essay. I was a little bit sceptical at first, as everyone other book i have found on sound, tends to be very "wordy" and often confuses me more than i was in the first place.
This book, however does not do that. It is structured into single lectures on different aspects of film sound and they are written in an extreamly accessible way that is not only informative but is also entertaining.
Definatly a recommendation!

2.0 out of 5 stars Buyer beware!!!, 19 July 2008
Don't be mislead by the title, this book isn't about soundscapes. It's a book about the movie soundtrack, compiled from interviews with those in the industry. A much better, and more accurate title might have been - "Soundtrack." There is a subtle but important difference. Not a disappointing read, however, informative, though reflective.
