Summary: Very informative
Comment: I saw this book in my local library and liked it so much I had to go out and buy a copy for myself.

Rating: 4
Summary: Complete and Exhaustive for the modern Samplist
Comment: I am a digital samplist, and therefore need to be able to get an idea of what any instrument in the world may look like so I can associate an image with sounds in my libraries. This book has really helped me get a handle on world instruments. I recommend it highly for those needing such documentation.

Rating: 4
Summary: Thorough and strong on native instruments...
Comment: Encyclopedia showing every musical instrument you can think of, from its primitive origins to modern orchestral versions. No photos, but good detailed drawings that show multiple variations of native instruments. Minimal but clear discussion on construction, method of playing, sound production etc. Attractive layout, thorough and apparently scholarly. Originally British, published in 1976.
