He has written ten books on acoustics and electroacoustics, and has published around 200 related articles, journal papers, and conference papers. Since 1992 he has lived in Spain, and during the course of his work has travelled to over 30 countries. His recording career has been very musically varied, from the Duke Ellington Orchestra to Queen, from The Who to The Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra, from Mike Oldfield to John Cale, and from English brass bands to Welsh choirs. Dr Keith Holland is currently an Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR), University of Southampton, UK, where he has worked full time as a student, researcher, and lecturer since 1984, and from where he obtained a BSc in Engineering Acoustics and Vibration in 1987, and a PhD on loudspeaker horns in 1993. Since 1990, Keith has taught electroacoustics and various other subjects, mainly audio-related, to under- and post-graduate students at the ISVR, and for ten of those years, also to the Tonmeister students at the University of Surrey. The artwork for Loudspeakers has been co-ordinated by Sergio Castro, a highly experienced musician, record producer, and recording engineer, with over 25 years of experience in the manufacturing of professional monitoring loudspeakers. The authors were also assisted by Julius Newell, an expert in electroacoustics and sound-system engineering, and who is also an established designer and manufacturer of professional monitoring loudspeakers.
