From the reviews:
"Blauert … have prepared a well-written comprehensive book on engineering acoustics, with an emphasis on physical acoustics and electroacoustics. … The figures are very clear. The inclusion of example and practice problems would have been helpful. The book is a welcome addition to the acoustics literature. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduate, graduate, research, and professional collections." (M. G. Prasad, Choice, Vol. 46 (6), February, 2009)
"This is a wonderful book … with 14 useful chapters, each covering a specific topic with the right amount of illustration and a well-guided presentation of the material. … The book is very well structured and it constitutes an excellent study guide for both students and teachers. … a wonderful book that should be considered for the libraries of either teachers or students of acoustics at the college level." (Dominique J. Chéenne, Noise Control Engineering Journal, Vol. 57 (1), 2009)
From the reviews of the second edition:
“The aim of this book is to provide the materials for an introductory course in engineering acoustics at the university level. … The book is relevant to a range of engineers from electro-acoustics to building acoustics. A notable feature of this book is that each chapter … covers a range of key concepts and equations which are clearly explained. … The book is not only useful as a textbook, but would also useful as a handbook for professional engineers and researchers.” (Jian Kang, Professional Engineering Publishing, February, 2011)
