************************************************
Elsevier is pleased to announce the recent publication of Ecological
Psychoacoustics edited by John G. Neuhoff (The College of Wooster, Wooster,
Ohio, U.S.A.)
Ecological Psychoacoustics outlines recent advances in dynamic, cognitive,
and ecological investigations of auditory perception and ties this work to
findings in more traditional areas of psychoacoustics. The book illuminates
some of the converging evidence that is beginning to emerge from these
traditionally divergent fields, providing a scientifically rigorous, "real
world" perspective on auditory perception, cognition, and action. In a
natural listening environment almost all sounds are dynamic, complex, and
heard concurrently with other sounds. Yet, historically, traditional
psychoacoustics has examined the perception of static, impoverished stimuli
presented in isolation. Ecological Psychoacoustics examines recent work that
challenges some of the traditional ideas about auditory perception that were
established with these impoverished stimuli and provides a focused look at
the perceptual processes that are more likely to occur in natural settings.
