Rezensionen

"This book deserves a place on the book shelves of any acoustical consultant, acoustical academic or acoustical researcher who works on sound insulation."

-- John Davy, RMIT University, Australia

"Mr. Rindel is a very renowned person in the field of Building Acoustics, with an extremely rich life time of experience, which allows the readers and users - be them technicians, engineers or practitioners - an overall set of scientific and technical information that certainly will contribute for the development of better professionals and acoustic quality of buildings."

-- Jorge Parício, National Laboratory for Civil Engineering, Portugal

"The author has an extensive background in the subject of building acoustics and he draws upon his lecture materials, his publications and his experience as a consultant to present subject matter and examples that will be useful to both students and consultants."

-- Jeffrey Mahn, National Research Council Canada

"Statistical energy analysis and flanking calculations were not a part of my acoustics education. I have had to learn these 'on the fly' and I anticipate that this book will be very valuable."

-- Wayland Dong, Veneklasen Associates

"The book has plenty of informative illustrations, and the presentation style and composition are suited for beginners and advanced users."

-- Marius Mickaitis, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Lithuania
