PDF-(BOOK)-An Introduction to the Physiology of Hearing

This book deals with the way that the auditory system processes acoustic signals 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 restoration of hearing by electrical stimulation of the ear and molecular and cellular approaches to hair cell repair replacement and regenerationA reading scheme has been provided to guide readers to the section most appropriate for their interests The book is written so that those entering auditory research from very little background in auditory neuroscience are able to understand the current research issues and research literature It is also intended to be a source book and reference work for advanced undergraduates studying the special senses and for clinicians in the speciality of OtorhinolaryngologyIt offers a contemporary look at the physiology of hearing each chapter has been thoroughly revised It is an excellent reading companion to practitioners and scholars It is also suitable for those undertaking auditory research It includes a reading scheme to guide readers through the book.

Introduction. This anatomy and physiology workbook, now in its second edition, is a unique study guide for introductory courses and textbooks in speech and hearing anatomy and physiology. Whether taught face to face or online, anatomy and physiology courses are dense in content and new material, and a practical book is much needed for undergraduate training. Great resource for students, professionals, or anyone interested in science specifically anatomy and physiology. Includes CD-ROM with diagrams and interaction. This comprehensive text and the accompanying ANIMA 3.0 program on CD-ROM provide an in-depth study of anatomy and physiology for speech, language, and hearing. The text is designed to make anatomy and physiology accessible to the reader without slighting the content. Clinical information is integrated with everyday experiences in an attempt to underscore the relevance of the anatomical material. The text includes bulleted summaries throughout each chapter, study questions, and a pronunciation guide in the glossary to help readers master the material. Analogies and examples are used generously to illustrate the material. This user-friendly text is a must for anyone who wants to really understand the anatomy and physiology as it relates to speech, language, and hearing.

Anatomy and Physiology of Speech and Hearing by Bernard Rousseau and Ryan C. Branski fulfills a growing need for a contemporary resource for students in speech and hearing science training programs. Extending well beyond traditional speech science and human anatomy, this publication encompasses the latest advances in the understanding of human physiology, basic cell functions, biological control systems, and coordinated body functions.Anatomy and Physiology of Speech and Hearing includes award-winning anatomic artwork from Thieme\'s Atlas of Anatomy, adding a rich visual basis to the clinical facets of speech, language, swallowing, hearing, and balance. The book begins with fundamentals of human anatomy and physiology such as embryology and development of speech and hearing mechanisms. The second section details nervous system functions including central and peripheral motor control. The physiology of respiration, phonation, articulation and resonance, hearing, swallowing, and balance are covered in the last six chapters.Key FeaturesHighlighted key terms, review questions, learning objectives, and summaries enable instructors and students to consolidate informationTextboxes offer meaningful examples of clinical disorders in a context conducive to applying newly learned conceptsOver 400 high-quality, detailed anatomical illustrations maximize comprehension of anatomical and physiological aspects of speech, language, swallowing, hearing, balance and related functionsOnline access to Q&A content and anatomy figures provides labels on/off functionality for interactive study and reviewThis core textbook is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students in communication sciences and disorders. The connection between basic and clinical science enables students to maximize learning and apply this new knowledge during clinical placements and externships. This anatomy and physiology workbook, now in its second edition, is a unique study guide for introductory courses and textbooks in speech and hearing anatomy and physiology. Whether taught face to face or online, anatomy and physiology courses are dense in content and new material, and a practical book is much needed for undergraduate training. Chapter 19. Outline. I.
