We are pleased to dedicate this book to Dr. Willem A. van Bergeijk, a pioneer in the comparative study of sound source localization. Dr. van Bergijk developed new models of localization and also provided important insights into potential mechanisms of hearing and sound localization by fishes. In addition, he made important contributions to studies of auditory mechanisms in amphibians and provided seminal thinking about the evolution of hearing.
Series Preface
The Springer Handbook of Auditory Research presents a series of comprehensive and synthetic reviews of the fundamental topics in modern auditory research. The volumes are aimed at all individuals with interests in hearing research including advanced graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and clinical investigators. The volumes are intended to introduce new investigators to important aspects of hearing science and to help established investigators to better understand the fundamental theories and data in fields of hearing that they may not normally follow closely. Each volume presents a particular topic comprehensively, and each serves as a synthetic overview and guide to the literature. As such, the chapters present neither exhaustive data reviews nor original research that has not yet appeared in peer-reviewed journals. The volumes focus on topics that have developed a
