Neuronal Mechanisms of Hearing

In contrast to the level of interest which is paid to the orga­ nization of meetings about the structure and function of the audi­ tory periphery, the central auditory system has received little attention in the last several years. However, much recent data accu­ mulated during this period has provi...
