Herman Medwin (1920-2006) was Emeritus Professor at the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California. He was a Fellow and Past President of the Acoustical Society of America, and won both the Silver and Gold Medals in Acoustical Oceanography from the Society. He was co-author, with C. S. Clay, of the influential textbooks Acoustical Oceanography (1977) and Fundamentals of Acoustical Oceanography (1998). He authored over 100 professional articles in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America and Journal of Geophysical Research, and others.

'Herman Medwin died in January 2006 at the age of 85. This book acts magnificently as a memorial to him ... The ascribed multiple authorship of this volume ... stands as a telling testament to this influence ... it is clearly written, and each chapter is provided with a range of problems which may be used to assess how well the presented material has been assimilated ... a useful introduction to non-linear effects such as parametric generation, acoustic streaming and the characteristics of explosive sources ... This is a magnificent book, a worthy occupant of shelf space in any oceanographic library.' The Magazine of the Challenger Society for Marine Science
