The Title is "Five Lectures on The Acoustics of the Piano"
edited by Anders Askenfelt

For interlibrary loan you'll also want to know:

There is a CD in the back with sound examples to go with the lectures.

The man that hath no music in himself,  
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, 
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils;  
The motions of his spirit are dull as night, 
And his affections dark as Erebus.   
Let no such man be trusted. 	
---Wm. Shakespeare - Merchant of Venice
