Because environmental acoustics has a complex mathematical basis, it is often difficult to determine whether acoustical recommendations are valid. Handbook of Environmental Acoustics simplifies this decision-making process and provides easy-to-follow explanations of acoustic terminology, noise control design, and regulatory noise issues.

The Effects of Sound on Peopleprovides a summary of the latest published research on the effects of sound on people, accompanied by thorough explanations of the technical descriptors typically used in these studies, permitting non-technical readers to understand the issues and be able to judge the validity of the results for themselves.
