ABOUT THE BOOK
Covers all the topics required for a thorough understanding of hearing sciences: acoustics, anatomy and physiology of the auditory and vestibular systems, psychoacoustics, and basic instrumentation. Written in a straightforward style, this text is appropriate for undergraduate students. Fundamental concepts from earlier chapters are reinforced as more complex topics are introduced. In short, it is an accessible book that students will rely on throughout their academic careers. Instructors may find the more advanced chapters useful as supplementary material in AuD programs.
