Divided into three parts, Part one provides an introduction to the basic sciences which underpin hearing aid audiology. Part two is devoted to the practice of audiology with and emphasis on audiometry, otoscopy, hearing aid selection and evaluation, and rehabilitation. Part three considers the management of specialized problems, including tinnitus and diagnostic audiometry, and introduces paediatric audiometry.
