Books by Trevor Cox

As an acoustic engineer, the author has spent his career eradicating unwanted noises - echoes in concert halls, clamour in classrooms. Until the day he heard something so astonishing that he had an epiphany: rather than quashing rare or bizarre sounds, we should be celebrating these sonic treasures. This title tells the story of his investigation.

Takes the reader on an evocative journey into Hove's past through a selection of beautiful old postcards.

We judge others - and whether we trust them - not just by their words but by the way they talk: their intonation, their pitch, their accent. Trevor Cox talks to vocal coaches who help people to develop their new voice after a gender change; and to computer scientists who replicate the human voice in their development of artificial intelligence.

A comprehensive overview of multivariate data and analysis Providing an introduction to the subject of multivariate data analysis without delving deeply into underlying theory and concepts, An Introduction to Multivariate Data is an excellent resource for undergraduate statistics courses as well as for professionals who require an understanding of statistical techniques for analyzing their own data sets. Focused on real-world application, the book includes sample exercises in each chapter to firmly cement the concepts covered. Exercises range from simple problems that can be solved by hand or with a calculator, while others require the use of computer-based statistical software.
