Acoustique générale by Henri Bouasse is a comprehensive treatise on the science of acoustics, originally published in French. The work covers fundamental principles of sound propagation, with a particular focus on aerial waves, reflecting Bouasse’s rigorous approach to physics education and research. As a classic text in the field, it provides detailed theoretical explanations and mathematical formulations relevant to both students and researchers in physics and engineering. The 1987 edition, published by Albert Blanchard, preserves the original content in a 544-page paperback format, making this foundational resource accessible to modern readers interested in the historical development of acoustic theory.
