The New Stereo Soundbook

by F. Alton Everest, Ron Streicher

By incorporating recent findings in auditory perception and current developments in surround sound, the concept of stereophonics is expanded from the simplistic one of sound coming out of two loudspeakers to a system yielding total envelopment of the listener in 3-dimensional sound. The discussions are nonmathematical, easily assimilated, and augmented with many line drawings. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Pretty useful primer on how stereo music is recorded and projected, including the interaction with sound waves and the microphones and speakers all the way to your eardrums and brain processing.
