This book examines young people's political engagement in the Anglo-American democracies. It is often alleged that young people are disengaged from politics on a number of levels. The commonly held view is that young people don't vote, they do not trust politicians and have low levels of political interest. But is this true, where is it true and |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Humans possess a remarkable ability to extract rich three-dimensional information about sound environments simply by analyzing the acoustic signals they receive at their two ears. Research in spatial hearing has evolved from a theoretical discipline studying the basic mechanisms of hearing to a technical discipline focused on designing |

|
and implementing increasingly sophisticated spatial auditory display systems. This book contains over 30 chapters representing the current state-of-the-art in spatial audio research selected from papers presented in Sendai, Japan, at the First International Work |
