Auditory Cortex A Synthesis of Human and Animal Research

Understanding human hearing is not only a scientific challenge but also a problem of growing social and political importance, given the steadily increasing numbers of people with hearing deficits or even deafness. This book is about the highest level of hearing in humans and other mammals. It brings together studies of both humans and animals thereby giving a more profound understanding of the concepts, approaches, techniques, and knowledge of the auditory cortex. All of the most up-to-date procedures of non-invasive imaging are employed in the research that is described.Heil, Peter is the author of 'Auditory Cortex A Synthesis of Human and Animal Research', published 2005 under ISBN 9780805849387 and ISBN 0805849386.
