This Symposium was held in honor of the 70th birthday of Dan Bolef, Professor Emeritus at Washington University, who joined the physics department in 1963. The articles in this volume are by internationally known and active leaders in the area of physical acoustics who were selected on the basis of their pedagogical skills as well as their stature within the field. This book provides a broad coverage of acoustics science and is sufficiently clear and pedagogical.
