520 _a"This book critically examines the changing urban soundscapes in Egypt during the first half of the twentieth century. Ziad Fahmy argues that it is not only possible to "listen" to the past, but doing so provides a deeper understanding of how people and societies dealt with their everyday realities. This is especially relevant from the late nineteenth to mid twentieth centuries as people had to grapple with rapid and significant technological and cultural changes"--
