Abstract
A chronology of the history of ultrasonics is one of fascinating discoveries, inventions and uses of this high frequency branch of acoustics. Behind this record of discovery lie equally fascinating tales of persons and personalities that have laid the groundwork for our still expanding field of science and technology. The highlights presented note some of the people and stories behind the scientific headlines of discovery. Ranging from the historically curious to the borders of scandal, the personalities of ultrasonics are as interesting as their inventions. The topics dealt with include sonar and biomedical ultrasonics.
