Mechanical Sound

Examines the persistence of noise on the public agenda, looking at four episodes of noise and public response to it in Europe and the United States between 1875 and 1975: industrial noise, traffic noise, noise from neighborhood radios and gramophones, and aircraft noise. This title looks at a 20th-century counterpoint to complaints about noise.
