Reviews

'The list of contributing authors reads like a veritable Who's Who' of UK acoustics.' - Acoustics Bulletin

'This represents an excellent introductory text book on noise and vibration for a postgraduate student or a specialist engineer with little or no previous acoustic knowledge.' - Acoustics Bulletin

"The book is also an excellent starting point for engineers seeking to acquaint themselves with these fields as well as a valuable reference for practising scientists. This is not only interesting reading; it is a useful reference for those working in or planning to work in the field of practical acoustics." - Acustica
