Great handy book

This is a really good book to give you an overview of hearing and different tests that are used in the field of audiology.

A Good One

This book is comprehensive and well-written. Difficult concepts are explained clearly. The word "Introduction" in the title is deceiving, as the book is very thorough.

Maybe the best

This book is one of my absolute favorites among the hearing research books. It covers all the basic themes and often gives very recent citations. So it is interesting to read that in some tinnitus patients ears the frequency is emitted from the ear! But together with this is the problem of the book associated: it is a little bit short. But all in all it is great to read and a wonderful inspiring book. Highly recommended also for beginners.

Must-read for those interested in auditory perception

This is the standard text for those interested in psychoacoustics. In addition to being authoritative, it is an excellent read. One of the few technical books I've actually read cover-to-cover more than once, and an invaluable reference.
