The Perception of Sound (book)

"The Perception of Sound" explores how humans interpret and experience auditory information. It examines the physical properties of sound waves—such as pitch, loudness, and timbre—and how our brains process these stimuli to create meaningful experiences like speech, music, and environmental sounds. The book discusses auditory anatomy, neural mechanisms, and psychological factors influencing perception. It aims to deepen understanding of how we perceive sound, shedding light on phenomena like auditory illusions and individual differences, thus bridging physics, biology, and psychology in a comprehensive, scientifically grounded manner.
