The current edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect the progress that has been made since the previous edition. Particularly major updates have been made in the following areas: cochlear function, including cochlear mechanics, hair cell function and mechanisms of transduction; the auditory central nervous system, a major area of advance in recent years; physiological correlates of auditory perception, including speech perception; and, cochlear pathophysiology and sensorineural hearing loss, including the r 606 $aHearing 606 $aEar$xPhysiology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHearing. 615 0$aEar$xPhysiology. 676 $a612.85 700 $aPickles$b James O$0907942 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465288903321 996 $aAn introduction to the physiology of hearing$92030820 997 $aUNINA
