Reviews of 1st edition:
'Barron's present book is a must for all architects faced with a major auditorium.' - Architect's Journal
'wonderfully clear exposition and a fascinating study...an excellent textbook and an introduction to the subject of acoustics which all theatre technicians would find useful.' - The Stage'This book is undoubtedly destined to become a classic. It is the first book since Beranek’s classic, Music, Acoustics and Architecture (1962) to deal with auditorium acoustics in the wider context of architecture…it can be read, understood and enjoyed by acousticians and architects alike.' - Journal of Sound and Vibration
'The book serves as an invaluable tutorial to the acoustician and architect on what architectural forms work best for auditoria and for different program types. For this, the book comes unreservedly recommended.' - Journal of Audio Engineering Society
