Middle-Ear Hearing Devices Sunil Puria.The middle ear plays a vital role in the sense and sensitivity of hearing. Of the various characteristics that distinguish mammals from other vertebrates, several pertain specifically to the middle-ear system, such as the presence of three middle-ear bones and the four-layer composite structure of the tympanic membrane. The Middle Ear attempts to elucidate the role this system plays in sound transmission, as viewed from both scientific and clinical perspectives. ·      The Middle Ear: Science and Applications Sunil Puria ·      The Evolution and Development of Middle Ears in Land Vertebrates Geoffrey A.
