This Element examines hospital noise, a problem that has repeatedly been discovered anew, with each new era bringing its own efforts to control and abate unwanted sound in healthcare settings. Explores the changing cacophony of the late twentieth-century British hospital, bringing together sensory, spatial, technological, societal, and medical histories.
