Reflecting the considerable advance in the fields of pitch perception and speech perception and the major changes in the way hearing aids work and the features they offer, this new edition is intended to give an understanding of the changes that take place when a person has cochlear hearing loss. It interrelates physiological and perceptual data and presents both this and basic concepts in an integrated manner, presenting an understanding of the perceptual changes associated with cochlear hearing loss, of the difficulties faced by the hearing-impaired, and the current limitations of current hearing aids.
