Klappentext zu „The Auditory Brain “
The auditory brain is the second volume in the Oxford Handbook of Auditory Science. It brings together world-leading authorities to describe what we know about the brain bases of hearing. Following the first section on structure and function, there follow sections on information coding within the brain, development, aging and plasticity, cognition and emotion, and pathology of the auditory brain. Fully illustrated, the book will be an essential resource for students and researchers in auditory science, neuroscience, ENT, and psycholology.

Rezension zu „The Auditory Brain “
...I will buy the remaining volumes to complete the series as this is going to be an indispensable reference. Well done, editors ENT & Audiology News ...this book remains an authoratative text in the field of auditory medicine...I would certainly recommend it for someone who wants all information on the auditory system in one handbook. Deafness and Education International This excellent resource on a wide range of topics in auditory neuroscience manages to provide breadth without sacrificing depth. The complexity of the auditory neural system is presented in a structured manner that makes the information assessible of readers with a wide range of interests and levels of experience. Ryan McCreery, Doody's Notes
