Techniques of Hearing

History, Theory and Practices
TaschenbuchKartoniert, Paperback
EUR54,00

Produktbeschreibung

Hearing, health, and technologies are entangled in multi-faceted ways. This edited volume addresses this complex relationship by arguing that modern hearing was and is increasingly linked to and mediated by technological innovations.
By providing a set of original interdisciplinary investigations that shed new light on the history, theory, and practices of hearing techniques, it is able to explore the heterogeneous entanglements of sound, hearing practices, technologies, and health issues. As the first book to bring together historians, scholars from media studies, social sciences, cultural studies, acoustics, and neuroscientists, the volume discusses modern technologies and their decisive impact on how "normal" hearing, enhanced and smart hearing, as well as hearing impairment have been configured. It brings both new insights into the histories of hearing technologies as well as allowing us to better understand how enabling hearing technologies have currently been unfolding an increasingly hybrid ecology engaging smart hearing devices and offering stress-free hearing and acoustic well-being in novel auditory environments.
The volume will be of interest to all scholars and students of disability studies, sound studies, sociology of health and illness, medical history, health and society, as well as those interested in the practices and techniques of self-monitored and smart hearing.

Ein Buch über die weibliche Pubertät, das sich an sowohl an Eltern, als auch an deren Töchter richtet? Ich war skeptisch, aber wenn es jemand schafft, gut lesbares Infotainment zu liefern, dabei kompetent, aber gleichzeitig lässig und lustig zu sein, dann ist das the one and only Dr.med. Sheila de Liz. Analoge Leser*innen kennen die Gynäkologin vielleicht schon von der Spiegel-Bestsellerliste, wo ihre Werke zum weiblichen Körper und zu den Wechseljahren über lange Zeit Stammplätze inne hatten; deren Kinder und Enkelkinder begegnen wahrscheinlich eher dem TikTok-Kanal @doktorsex, den sie zusammen mit einem Kollegen betreibt. Als Mutter, Frauenärztin und online ist sie täglich mit einem Haufen Unsicherheit und Fragen konfrontiert, die sie hier offen, schamfrei und direkt beantwortet.
So cool und empowernd kann und sollte ein generationsübergreifender Ratgeber sein- ich finde, sie hat alles richtig gemacht.


Expectant parents get almost as many unsolicited book recommendations as they do pieces of advice from their friends, family ... and strangers on the street.
This recommendation comes every bit as unsolicited of course but I cannot help but think it should be prescribed by every doctor in the world after the first positive pregnancy test (even before in fact).
Oster is an economist and she has made it her mission to analyse the best data out there to help women make good decisions about their pregnancies (and by extension their partners too). If the long list of pregnancy prohibitions has ever seemed strange to you, this book will help you to differentiate between the very real dangers of some substances on your baby and the foods and drinks that really aren't that dangerous at all.
Oster's explicit goal is to help people make good evidence-based decisions so the book doesn't judge those who prefer ultra caution but it does help put the choice back into pregnant women's lives.
