The Auditory System: Anatomy, Physiology, and Clinical Correlates was written to provide a comprehensive text on the anatomy and physiology of the peripheral as well as the central auditory systems.



The text provides balanced coverage and, whenever possible, a case study, a brief review, or a clinical comment is connected to the basic science principle being discussed. The added "clinical" information is highlighted in the text as clinical or pathological correlates. This feature is designed to provide a link between science and practice in a relevant manner.
