About this Item

Neuware -The Springer Handbook of Auditory Research presents a series of compreh- sive and synthetic reviews of the fundamental topics in modern auditory - search. The volumes are aimed at all individuals with interests in hearing research including advanced graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and clinical investigators. The volumes are intended to introduce new investigators to important aspects of hearing science and to help established investigators to better understand the fundamental theories and data in elds of hearing that they may not normally follow closely. Each volume presents a particular topic comprehensively, and each serves as a synthetic overview and guide to the literature. As such, the chapters present neither exhaustive data reviews nor original research that has not yet appeared in peer-reviewed journals. The volumes focus on topics that have developed a solid data and conceptual foundation rather than on those for which a literature is only beginning to develop. New research areas will be covered on a timely basis in the series as they begin to mature.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 348 pp. Englisch.

About this title

Synopsis

The localization of sound is a fundamental issue for all auditory systems and therefore a subject important to a wide range of auditory research. Although localization has been studied extensively, a comprehensive volume incorporating work from many specialties is needed. This volume reviews the study of the detection of sound sources in mammals as well as a variety of other organisms. Bringing together subjects touched upon in other SHAR volumes, this single book synthesizes and updates the subject of localization.
