Hearing Science Fundamentals, Second Edition maintains the
straightforward style of the previous edition, introducing the
basic concepts in hearing science in an easy-to-understand format.
With a wide variety of student-friendly features and instructor
resources, this comprehensive textbook facilitates the absorption
of technical material by both undergraduate and graduate students.
The text is divided into four clear sections to cover everything
from the physics of sound to the anatomy and physiology of the
auditory pathway and beyond. The textbook begins by delving into
the basics of acoustics and digital signal processing (DSP). In the
next section, readers will find full coverage of the basic anatomy
and physiology of the auditory mechanism. The third section
contains eight chapters on psychoacoustics and how sound is
perceived via the auditory pathways. The book wraps up with a
brand-new section devoted to pathologies of the auditory
mechanisms. New to the Second Edition New coauthor, Jeremy J.
Donai, AuD, PhD, brings his extensive clinical and research
experience to the concepts discussed Nine new chapters, including:
Review of Speech Acoustics (Chapter 2) Digital Signal Processing
(Chapter 3) Binaural Processing (Chapter 8) Temporal Processing
(Chapter 10) Signal Detection Theory (Chapter 13) Auditory
