The book is appropriate for undergraduate courses in hearing science, acoustics for speech and hearing, as well as related courses in audiology.N EW TO THIS EDITION:*New chapter on Room Acoustics (Chapter 10) summarizes relevant concepts for classrooms as well as discusses principles and methods for assessing speech intelligibility/understanding*Chapter 3 on Acoustic Impedance is now a new free-standing chapter*Each chapter includes Practice Problems*Several other chapters have been reorganized to achieve an improved focus and more logical flow of concepts*Now includes a Glossary of key terms*Information has been made more concise*Access to a PluralPlus companion website that includes resources for both students (course notes, study questions) and instructors (PowerPoint lecture slides, related links.)*Availability of 17 computer animations on the web to illustrate, in slow motion, elements of acoustics that are ordinarily too fast to visualize.
