Book description
Praise for the first edition:
I cannot praise this book too
highly it is undoubtedly now the benchmark text in this area, and is
an absolute essential for every audiologist and student. Graham
Sutton, International Journal of Radiology, Vol. 41, No. 6, 2002
One of the best textbooks I have ever used...written by a researcher
with a stellar reputation [who is also] an expert on the clinical
aspects of the field...packed with information from both a theoretical
and practical perspective...makes difficult concepts
comprehensible...from an instructors point of view, it is a sheer
delight. Adrienne Rubenstein, PhD, Professor, Department of Speech
Communication Arts and Sciences, Brooklyn College, New York
Key Features:
- Completely revised to reflect the research and technological
advances of the last decade

signal processing strategies
- Extensive coverage of all aspects of open-canal, thin-tube
hearing aids
- Practical tips, tables, and procedures designed to be pinned on
the walls of clinics

Hearing Aids, Second Edition, is a book within a book:
- Each chapter has a one-page synopsis that captures the key
concepts of each topic
- The material that students most need is contained in marked
paragraphs that flow after each other to form a coherent thin book
inside the larger book
- Intervening additional paragraphs add satisfying depth
Written, comprehensively referenced, and extensively reviewed by
leaders in the field, this book is ideal as a core graduate text as
well as a standard reference for clinicians.
