Auditory Perception An Analysis and Synthesis

Auditory Perception: An Analysis and Synthesis by Richard M. Warren is a comprehensive exploration of sound and its interpretation by the auditory system. Published by Cambridge University Press on June 19, 2008, this third edition spans 276 pages and is presented in English. The book delves into various aspects of auditory perception, including the nature of sound, sound localization, loudness judgments, and the perception of acoustic sequences.
Readers will find an in-depth analysis of how auditory input is processed, alongside discussions on speech production and perception. This edition introduces new features such as suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, a section on functional imaging of the brain, and expanded information on pitch. It serves as a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in fields such as neuroscience, psychology, and the hearing sciences, providing a thorough understanding of auditory perception and its implications.
Official synopsis Publisher
This revised and updated third edition describes the nature of sound, how sound is analyzed by the auditory system, and the rules and principles governing our interpretation of auditory input. It covers many topics including sound and the auditory system, locating sound sources, the basis for loudness judgments, perception of acoustic sequences, perceptual restoration of obliterated sounds, speech production and perception, and the relation of hearing to perception in general. Whilst keeping the consistent style of the previous editions, many new features have been added, including suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, a section on functional imaging of the brain, expanded information on pitch and infrapitch, and additional coverage of speech processing. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in auditory perception, behavioral sciences, psychology, neurobiology, architectural acoustics, and the hearing sciences will find this book an excellent guide.
