Smartly edited with well-chosen and pithy entries, Keywords in Sound promises to become an indispensable book in the fast-growing Sound Studies literature, This is an important contribution to the emergent field of sound studies. It will help in both defining the field more fully and in refining its key terms more elaborately., The apparent strategy of the editors is to form a basic, redefined lexicon and this is nicely accomplished. ... Eventually this interesting and thorough experiment reflects the subtle innate heterogeneity of sound, drawing one of the many possible cultural galaxies around it., Readers who are already working in sound studies will likely enjoy the volume, primarily as summary of research and as a rearticulation of central concepts. But the real audience for the volume seems to be those just beginning to explore sound studies or teaching it in universities. The book would make for a good supplemental text in a seminar if read alongside primary sources. ... Keywords in Sound is a valuable addition to a growing body of texts in sound studies., From 'Acoustemology' to 'Voice' in the form of a primer, a very rich and stimulating panorama--historical, geographic, and theoretical--taking up numerous questions concerning this strange thing: sound., For anyone wanting a substantial, if not comprehensive, introduction to the field, Keywords in Sound is the place to start., "The apparent strategy of the editors is to form a basic, redefined lexicon and this is nicely accomplished. ...

Each contributor details their keyword's intellectual history, outlines its role in cultural, social and political discourses, and suggests possibilities for further research. Keywords in Sound charts the philosophical debates and core problems in defining, classifying and conceptualizing sound, and sets new challenges for the development of sound studies. Contributors.

    My book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!

    I recently purchased a book from this Seller, and I couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience. The book arrived in excellent condition, exactly as described. It was packaged in a sturdy, reusable cardboard envelope using no plastic at all. Delivery was surprisingly fast, exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend this Seller!
