REVIEWS
"This handbook is highly recommended for the library of any organisation or company that has any dealing with assessment and control of noise and vibration." (Acoustics Australia, Vol 35, No. 3)
"It is recommended that this book be close at hand for every acoustical consulting and design engineer. It is remarkably complete and deals with noise and vibration at levels understood by all engineers. I give this Handbook my heartiest endorsement." (International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol 12)
"A new 1,600-page reference book, "Handbook of Noise and Vibration Control," intended to be the definitive source on noise and vibration control for engineers, scientists, and researchers. The new reference book addresses a range of topics in acoustics and vibration, focusing on industrial needs." (Airport Noise Report; 11/2/07)
DESCRIPTION
Two of the most acclaimed reference works in the area of acoustics in recent years have been our Encyclopedia of Acoustics, 4 Volume set and the Handbook of Acoustics spin-off. These works, edited by Malcolm Crocker, positioned Wiley as a major player in the acoustics reference market. With our recently published revision of Beranek & Ver's Noise and Vibration Control Engineering, Wiley is a highly respected name in the acoustics business.
Crocker's new handbook covers an area of great importance to engineers and designers. Noise and vibration control is one largest areas of application of the acoustics topics covered in the successful encyclopedia and handbook. It is also an area that has been under-published in recent years. Crocker has positioned this reference to cover the gamut of topics while focusing more on the applications to industrial needs. In this way the book will become the best single source of need-to-know information for the professional markets.
