EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
The extraordinary ability of dolphins to echolocate has fascinated scientists and the public since its discovery in the late 1950's. The Sonar of Dolphins is the first book to summarize modern research on this subject, and presents a broad synthesis of this very interdisciplinary subject. The author is an internationally-recognized expert on dolphin sonar and is in a unique position to bring together research on the physiological, mathematical and engineering aspects of dolphin sonar. The Sonar of Dolphins will be of interest to auditory researchers, electrical engineers, acoustical physicists, and mammalian physiologists.
