Here is the opening paragraph. "It is= customary on occasions such as this to define the diners for whom the feas= t is spread. I had two types of reader in mind. One is he who loves to lie = in a hammock in his orchard of a summer afternoon, a glass of switchel in o= ne hand and a good book on psychoacoustics in the other. In such a fructipa= rous setting, who would not relish leafing and re-leafing the pages of the = first memorable volumes of the Acoustical Society journal, or one of Seasho= re's charming Iowa Monographs of 1899 on the psychology of music."
