The auditory cerebellum : function and dysfunction /

Focuses on the sensory and cognitive aspects of the cerebellum, with an emphasis on hearing, speech, music, speaking, and singing. This book fills the gap for information needed in audiology and auditory neuroscience, tinnitus, and developmental disorders with a strong auditory component. This book...
