List members might therefore be = interested in a wide-ranging paper on this topic just published in PLOS ONE= . My paper, "A Resonance Approach to Cochlear Mechanics", can be accessed a= t http://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0047918 A supporting paper, "Reptile ears and mammalian ears: hearing without a tra= velling wave", might also be of interest. This paper was recently published= in the Journal of Hearing Science and can be found at http://www.journalof= hearingscience.com/fulltxt.php?lang=3DEN&ICID=3D883509 Thankyou to list members for a range of stimulating comments. The aim of th= e above papers is to set out a consistent alternative theory of how the hum= an cochlea works, and I trust they clarify a number of issues that have bee= n raised. Andrew.
