The best way to describe sound is by thinking of them as waves. This book pretty much explains what that is so. It begins with a discussion on how sound energy moves, followed by why there are different kinds of sounds. Finally, the last chapter discusses all kinds of musical instruments and the beautiful sounds they create. Read and learn about sound.
