Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the century-old prevailing scientific consensus on acoustics, known as the wave theory of sound. It argues that sound is not a mode of motion in air, but rather a real physical entity. The author contends that the wave theory is inconsistent with the broader scientific understanding of natural forces, which are not modes of motion but substantial entities. The book provides many proofs against the wave theory, and goes on to explain the substantial theory in detail. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the subject of acoustics. If you are an audio engineer, music teacher, musician, composer, physicist, or student, you'll want to read this thought-provoking discussion of the nature of sound. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
