Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This was one of the books required for my Doctor of Audiology coursework and it quickly became my favorite source for the anatomy and physiology of the auditory system. Initially, it was difficult to read. However, after reading the book for a short time and becoming more comfortable with the author's style of writing, it became much easier to process.
While not directly clinically useful, I believe it is a must read for all Audiologists as it provides an extensive look into the auditory system and why we do what we do in the clinic.

This book deals with the way that the auditory system processes acoustic signals. Since the first edition appeared, rapid and exciting developments have been made in several areas which bear on this theme, most notably in the understanding of cochlear function, including cochlear mechanics, hair cell function and mechanisms of transduction. The sections of the book dealing with these areas have been completely rewritten. Every chapter has been completely revised in the light of developments in the field. A reading scheme has been provided to guide readers to the sections most appropriate for their interest. The book is written at a level suitable for undergraduates studying the special senses or as a basis for a range of more advanced studies.
