This text comprises an attempt by the author to render the science
of acoustics in a way that it can be interesting to all intelligent
persons, including those who do not have any special scientific
knowledge. To encourage the interest of the reader, the subjects of
this book are proposed experimentally, with each experiment paced
before the reader so that they can be realised as an actual
operation. This scarce scientific classic was devised as a
comprehensive compendium on the topic of sound, as well as being a
conscious attempt to help solidify the increasing recognition of
scientific claims at the time. Still applicable today, this
fascinating book will appeal to aspiring scientists and constitutes
a worthy addition to any library. John Tyndall was a prominent 19th
century physicist, whose initial scientific fame arose in the 1850s
from his study of diamagnetism. This book was originally published
in 1867 and is proudly republished now with an introductory
biography of the author."
