Written by a well-known textbook author with 39 years of experience performing research, teaching, and mentoring in the field, it is specially designed to provide maximum support for learning. Presentation begins from a foundation that does not assume prior study of acoustics and advanced mathematics. Derivations are rigorous, thoroughly explained, and often innovative. Important concepts are discussed for their physical implications and their implementation. Many of the examples are mini case studies that address systems students will find to be interesting and motivating for continued study. Step-by-step explanations accompany example solutions. They address both the significance of the example and the strategy for approaching it. Wherever techniques arise that might be unfamiliar to the reader, they are explained in full. Volume I contains 186 homework exercises, accompanied by a detailed solutions manual for instructors. This text, along with its companion, Volume II: Applications, provides a knowledge base that will enable the reader to begin undertaking research and to work in core areas of acoustics. Provides broad and comprehensive treatment of the basic principles and phenomena encountered in physical and engineering acoustics Approaches derivations and examples in a logical, lucid, and rigorous manner, with special attention given to the reasons behind the formulation, and detailed explanation of operations that might be unfamiliar to the student Contains 64 innovative examples, some based on real-world systems, which highlight the connection between physical phenomena and derived principles Embeds coverage of numerical methods into the examples, including discussion of algorithms and associated macrocode, with Matlab code available online. 606 $aAcoustical engineering 606 $aAcoustics 606 $aOceanography 606 $aFluids 606 $aNoise control 606 $aBuildings 606 $aEngineering Acoustics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T16000 606 $aAcoustics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21069 606 $aOceanography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G25005 606 $aFluid- and Aerodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21026 606 $aNoise Control$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U27004 606 $aBuilding Types and Functions$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K13004 615 0$aAcoustical engineering. 615 0$aAcoustics. 615 0$aOceanography. 615 0$aFluids. 615 0$aNoise control. 615 0$aBuildings. 615 14$aEngineering Acoustics. 615 24$aAcoustics. 615 24$aOceanography. 615 24$aFluid- and Aerodynamics. 615 24$aNoise Control. 615 24$aBuilding Types and Functions. 676 $a620.2 700 $aGinsberg$b Jerry H$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01060137 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299914003321 996 $aAcoustics-A Textbook for Engineers and Physicists$92511353 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03802nam 2200613 a 450 001 9911019988203321 005 20240821183634.0 010 $a1-119-19723-6 010 $a1-280-90123-3 010 $a9786610901234 010 $a0-470-14963-9 035 $a(CKB)1000000000356851 035 $a(EBL)297325 035 $a(OCoLC)437182340 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000164310 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11168644 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000164310 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10121291 035 $a(PQKB)11449138 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC297325 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000356851 100 $a20070206d2007 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGold $ethe once and future money /$fNathan Lewis 210 $aHoboken, N.J. $cJohn Wiley$d2007 215 $a1 online resource (466 p.) 225 1 $aAgora Series 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-470-04766-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 423-432) and index. 327 $aGood money is stable money : how people make a living through monetary cooperation -- Hard money and soft money : currencies and economies around the world--from the seventh century BC to the twenty-first century AD -- Supply, demand, and the value of currency : how the value and quantity of money are regulated by central banks -- Inflation, deflation, and floating currencies : the effects of monetary distortion on the economy -- The gold standard : the most effective means of creating a currency of stable value -- Taxes : economic miracle to economic disaster, and the art of statesmanship -- Money in America : from colonial silver and paper to the turmoil of 1929 -- A history of central banking : from ancient Egypt and Rome to the Bank of England and the U.S. Federal Reserve -- The 1930s : a failure of monetary and fiscal policy causes a capitalist collapse -- The Bretton Woods gold standard : the postwar golden age and the beginning of monetary chaos -- Reagan and Volcker : monetarism fails, but the tax cuts succeed--and the 1980s boom -- The Greenspan years : the 1987 stock market crash, a recession, recovery, and monetary deflation -- Japan's success and failure : tax cuts, a golden yen, and the greatest monetary deflation in history -- The Asia crisis of the late 1990s : worldwide currency turmoil and economic disaster caused by a mismanaged U.S. dollar -- Russia, China, Mexico, and Yugoslavia : the Communist gold standards and hyperinflationary collapse -- A return to hard currencies : good money is a cornerstone of good government. 330 $aFor most of the last three millennia, the world's commercial centers have used one or another variant of a gold standard. It should be one of the best understood of human institutions, but it's not. It's one of the worst understood, by both its advocates and detractors. Though it has been spurned by governments many times, this has never been due to a fault of gold to serve its duty, but because governments had other plans for their currencies beyond maintaining their stability. And so, says Nathan Lewis, there is no reason to believe that the great monetary successes of the past four centurie 410 0$aAgora Series 606 $aMonetary policy 606 $aBusiness cycles 606 $aGold standard 615 0$aMonetary policy. 615 0$aBusiness cycles. 615 0$aGold standard. 676 $a332.4042 676 $a332.4222 686 $a83.50$2bcl 700 $aLewis$b Nathan$f1971-$01838243 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911019988203321 996 $aGold$94417194 997 $aUNINA
