Lesson 25-1 Non-auditory effects of noise
Many people inindustry and the Services, who have practical experience of noise, regard anyinvestigation of this question as a waste of time; they are not prepared evento admit the possibility that noise affects people. On the other hand, thosewho dislike noise will sometimes use most inadequate evidence to support theirpleas for a quieter society. This is a pity, because noise abatement really isa good cause, and it is likely to be discredited if it gets to be associatedwith bad science.
One allegationoften made is that noise produces mental illness. A recent article in a weeklynewspaper, for instance, was headed with a striking illustration of a lady in astate of considerable distress, with the caption 'She was yet another victim,reduced to a screaming wreck'.
