Reviews ”This unique book, volume 1 of two volumes, offers current evidence-based information on a variety of topics in audiology. . . .The book and its related online content are invaluable to the audiology profession. The book is laid out with an abstract, introduction, history of the topic, and a thorough dive into the topic in an evidence-based fashion. It is readable and practical. These qualities are a perfect blend for both students and clinicians. The idea to marry multimedia content that can be updated more easily with the detailed written work results in a strong learning resource. . . . The audience is students, although they can be in a doctoral program or professional learners honing their craft. The book is historical, detailed, and practical, providing information that can be foundational knowledge as well as used in clinical practice. The authors vary in their expertise as well as location, making this a valuable, global resource.” —Doody’s Notes, review by Lori J. Newport, AuD (Biola University) Now Available in Paperback With chapters from audiology professionals from around the world, Advances in Audiology and Hearing Science—presented in two volumes—provides an abundance of information on the latest technological and procedural advances in this ever-improving field. Volume 1 primarily focuses on revised clinical protocols and provides information on new research to help guide decisions and criteria regarding diagnosis, management, and treatment of hearing-related issues. Topics include new clinical applications such as auditory steady-state response, wideband acoustic immittance, otoacoustic emissions, frequency following response, noise exposure, genomics and hearing loss, and more. The volume also includes a section on canine audiology, allowing students and professionals a broader exposure to hearing science. Volume 2: Otoprotection, Regeneration, and Telemedicine includes sections with material related to hearing devices, hearing in special populations, such as the children and the elderly, as well chapters on the fast-growing subfields of otoprotection and regeneration, including pharmacologic otoprotection, stem cells, and nanotechnology. Topics include early auditory development in children after cochlear implantation, music therapy, the effect of music on hearing health, and auditory enhancement. Several chapters focus on telemedicine, the remote diagnosis and treatment of patients by means of telecommunications technology. The volumes have been specially authored and organized to function as teaching aids for undergraduate and graduate courses in audiology and speech pathology. The volumes will also be a valuable reference for professions in in audiology, hearing science, neuroscience, and ENT (ear, nose, and throat) and a rich source of information for audiology professionals wishing to keep abreast of what’s happening in the audiology and hearing science field.

AAP support has been truly important throughout the initial and final stages of the book. While the majority of the publishing work is done at the early stages, the final touches that include the last-minute corrections of the authors are extremely crucial to the quality the book tries to convey. The assistance of AAP during the last stages of corrections and communication with the authors was a very positive contributor to my state of mind during those stressful moments. I recommend the publishing experience with AAP to other editors of scientific material.” —Stavros Hatzopoulos, PhD, Hearing Science Laboratory, University Hospital of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy AAP book title: Nanotechnologies: The Physics of Nanomaterials (2-volume set) “I was very pleased with the interaction and support of the team at Apple Academic Press.
