Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOW PUBLISHED BY PLURAL! 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 Perception and Hearing Impairment (Chapter 14); Separate and expanded chapters for Pathologies of the Auditory Mechanism (Chapter 9) from first edition; Pathologies of the Conductive Auditory Mechanism (Chapter 15); Pathologies of the Sensory Auditory Mechanism (Chapter 16); Pathologies of the Central Auditory Mechanism (Chapter 17) * Clinical Notes and Vocabulary Checks features have been added through the textEvidence-based information incorporated throughout the text * Updated Recommended Readings list * Audio examples and overview lecture videos for students Key Features: * Learning Objectives and Key Terms at the beginning of each chapter prepare the student for the chapter contents * Two-color anatomical and line illustrations aid understanding of important technical concepts * Q & A boxes reinforce important information presented in the text * A Glossary of important terms Disclaimer: Please note that ancillary content (such as documents, quizzes, and exercises) may not be included as published in the original print version of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No branch of classical physics is older in its origins yet more modern in its applications than acoustics. Courses on acoustics very naturally begin with a study of vibrations, as a preliminary to the introduction of the wave equations. Both vibrations and waves, of course, are vastly important to all branches of physics and engineering. But it is very helpful to students to gain an understanding of mechanical waves before trying to comprehend the more subtle and abstract electromagnetic ones. This undergraduate-level text opens with an overview of fundamental particle vibration theory, and it proceeds to examinations of waves in air and in three dimensions, interference patterns and diffraction, and acoustic impedance, as illustrated in the behavior of horns. Subsequent topics include longitudinal waves in different gases and waves in liquids and solids; stationary waves and vibrating sources, as demonstrated by musical instruments; reflection and absorption of sound waves; speech and hearing; sound measurements and experimental acoustics; reproduction of sound; and miscellaneous applied acoustics. Supplementary sections include four appendixes and answers to problems. Introduction. Appendixes. List of Symbols. References. Index. Answers to Problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fourth Edition of Yost's successful introductory book on hearing, this edition updates and expands the fundamental facts about hearing. Fundamentals of Hearing is still the only non-edited book that covers sound, auditory anatomy and physiolgy, and psychoaoustics and auditory perception in one book at an introductory level. An Instructor's Workbook contains 15 chapters, one for each in the textbook. Each chapter contains 12 problems and answers, suggested tracks form the ASA Audio CD-ROM (audio examples for understanding hearing provided by the Acoustical Society of America-this CD-ROM will not be included), suggestions for class exercises, and for some chapters, example figures and graphs. The CD-ROM provided with the Instructor's Workbook contains a copy of all the figures in the textbook, as well as text files that can be loaded into any spread sheet. These files contain the basic data and plots used in the book, a toolbox of MATLAB routines (a math program of Mathworks, Inc., used by many people who study all aspects of hearing), both MATLAB and executable Windows 95 programs for a) generating sounds, b) a simulation of measuring a neural tuning curve, and c) running psychophysical experiments for discrimination and detection of tones in noise (both diotic and dichotic).
