(It is commonly observed that speech understanding decline...)
It is commonly observed that speech understanding declines with advancing age. A major factor is the aging of the biological mechanisms of hearing, a phenomenon classically termed presbycusis. The purpose of this book is to summarize the research data on speech understanding as a function of age, particularly as to their predictive value, fundamental and practical importance.
