Both Acoustics and Acoustical Measurements  are available at ABE.com for less than a very good lunch. If you are this kind of geek, they will stick with you a lot longer than lunch.

If you are a people-person, his autobiography is all over ABE.com at burger-lunch prices.

Beranek and Olson are always present in literature references of my articles.

Wow, 30 years between the critically maligned design and his next room design.  That's a long walk in the desert.  Doesn't appear to have affected his stature, not knowing many details.  Food for thought there, a lesson for all of us on some level.
