Introduction to Audiology allows readers to test their knowledge by completing specific exercises based on facts and concepts learned from textbooks and lectures.

In order to assess their knowledge of the basic facts and concepts of audiology, students can use this book, either on its own, or in conjunction with any main text as a comprehensive review of the types of information covered in the ASHA examination. It can also be used as a primary source book for graduate students and professionals. This new edition features three new chapters that correspond to chapters in Martin's textbook, Introduction to Audiology.
