three compartment cochlear model
How better to learn the applying physics makes auditory sense theory than directly from his creator, Heerens himself? Heerens describes the theory, illuminating his case with numerous examples and a smattering of math (nothing more complex than high-school algebra). The booklet is not casual reading, but for those who appreciate his work, applying physics makes auditory sense will prove a stimulating read.
