2003 - Prendergast, Mark. The Ambient Century. 2nd ed. Bloomsbury.

In The Ambient Century: From Mahler to Moby (2003), Mark Prendergast identifies Max Neuhaus as a fundamental pioneer who transformed music into permanent, place-specific sound installations. Prendergast positions Neuhaus as a key figure shifting from formal composition to electronic sound sculpture, notably highlighting the 1977 Times Square installation as a defining example of ambient, urban art.
