Book excerpt: This book contains a complete and accurate mathematical treatment of the sounds of music with an emphasis on musical timbre.

All the contributors use a generalized additive sine wave model for describing musical timbre which gives a conceptual unity, but is of sufficient utility to be adapted to many different tasks.
