Re: introductory reading on auditory perception

[Ingrid Johnsrude <ij4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Erin,

I use chapters out of Chris Plack's book 'The Sense of Hearing'. 
(Lawrence Erlbaum) for precisely this. The book is short, engagingly 
written, accurate, and up to date -- published 2005. Its also softcover, 
so reasonably inexpensive and practical for students to buy.
