On Language

John Grant

Sinopse

As one of the most strikingly original lyricists going, it's entirely unsurprising that John Grant has a life-long interest in language and languages—from the academic solace he found in his school days  upon discovering his talent for German, through to his love of Russian and the Icelandic language of his current home, Grant has found succour, relief and stimulation in words and how they work. In this fascinating interview with the writer Will Burns, John Grant's passion for language provides the foundations for hilarious and heartbreaking digressions on his own life, on politics, on history, on music and much more—John Grant On Language functions as a compelling and unique portrait of an artist in, and through, words.

Audiology - The Science of Sound...

Mike Crawford

Audiology is the branch of science that focuses on the study of sound, hearing, and balance. It is a multifaceted field that encompasses the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of various auditory and vestibular disorders. The role of audiologists is essential in identifying hearing impairments, providing interventions, and promoting overall ear health, which plays a vital part in communication and quality of life.
Sound, in its simplest form, is the vibration of molecules in the air that travel as waves to our ears. As one of the primary ways humans perceive the world around them, hearing is not only crucial for communication but also for safety, socialization, and enjoyment. Audiologists specialize in understanding these complex processes and the challenges that arise when they are impaired. Their work involves not only diagnosing hearing loss but also managing conditions related to balance and the inner ear, both of which are intricately linked.
The study of audiology dates back to the early 20th century, with significant advancements made throughout the decades in both technology and methodology. Today, audiology has grown into a highly specialized field that includes a range of services, from basic hearing tests to advanced procedures like cochlear implants and balance rehabilitation. Audiologists employ a variety of diagnostic tools, including audiometers, tympanometers, and specialized tests, to evaluate hearing and vestibular function. These assessments are critical in identifying the specific nature of auditory or balance problems, which can stem from a range of causes such as aging, genetics, illness, injury, or environmental factors.
