Summary "Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 'Hearing' to 'Helmond'" by Various is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. It is part of a comprehensive encyclopedia that covers a variety of topics in arts, sciences, literature, and general knowledge. This volume specifically addresses subjects ranging from auditory physiology to entries on various historical and geographical topics, providing detailed information and explanations. The opening portion of this encyclopedia begins with an extensive exploration of the physiology of hearing. It describes the anatomy of the ear, including the external ear, middle ear, and internal ear, while explaining how sound vibrations are transmitted through different structures within the ear. The text further examines the physiological and sensory characteristics associated with sound perception, detailing the processes involved in differentiating pitch and intensity, as well as the physiological responses of the auditory system. This thorough discourse sets the stage for subsequent entries by grounding readers in the scientific understanding of auditory sensation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
