摘要：

In July 2016 Geoff Kerry provided an informative and entertaining presentation on a potted history of acoustics. In between the world wars, the Institute of Physics (IOP) forms, Sabine introduces room acoustics and the National Physical Laboratory create a division especially for sound. Post WW2, the transportation boom creates noise and more noise, and something needs to be done about this new issue. The Physical Society create an Acoustics Group and eventually amalgamate with the IOP, where emphasis is put on qualifications and professional standards for acoustics, but soon with all these separate groups, acoustics somehow loses momentum.
