The human species is largely defined by its use of spoken language,
so integral is speech communication to behavior and social
interaction. Despite its importance in everyday life, comparatively
little is known about the auditory mechanisms that underlie the
ability to understand language. The current volume examines the
perception and processing of speech from the perspective of the
hearing system. The chapters in this book describe a comprehensive
set of approaches to the scientific study of speech and hearing,
ranging from anatomy and physiology, to psychophysics and
perception, and computational modeling. The auditory basis of
speech is examined within a biological and an evolutionary context,
and its relevance to applied domains such as communication
disorders and speech technology discussed in detail. This volume
will be of interest to scientists, engineers, and clinicians whose
professional work pertains to any aspect of spoken language or
hearing science.
