Journalist Chris Berdik speaks about his new book, "Clamor: How Noise Took Over the World and How We Can Take it Back."
Clamor brings attention to a pollutant that may not be getting the attention it deserves. Drawing on extensive research and original reporting, Berdik shows how a too-limited understanding of noise, focused on loud sounds and decibel counts, has undermined a century of noise-control efforts and obscured the full toll noise exacts on us and the environment.
