Thanks to the EU COST (Cooperations in Science and Technology) in particular the COST Action IC0601 (Sonic Interaction Design), we have been able to publish the book as an OpenAccess book, so that we can provide the book online in PDF. The online version of the book is provided at <http://sonification.de/handbook>. The website contains all media examples and supplementary material for the chapters.
